expecting this boolean variable should use ``site.ENABLE_USER_SITE``
instead.
* Removed ``pkg_resources.ImpWrapper``. Clients that expected this class
should use ``pkgutil.ImpImporter`` instead.
-----
1.4.2
-----
* `Issue #116 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/116>`_: Correct TypeError when reading a local package index on Python
3.
-----
1.4.1
-----
* `Issue #114 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/114>`_: Use ``sys.getfilesystemencoding`` for decoding config in
``bdist_wininst`` distributions.
* `Issue #105 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/105>`_ and `Issue #113 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/113>`_: Establish a more robust technique for
determining the terminal encoding::
1. Try ``getpreferredencoding``
2. If that returns US_ASCII or None, try the encoding from
``getdefaultlocale``. If that encoding was a "fallback" because Python
could not figure it out from the environment or OS, encoding remains
unresolved.
3. If the encoding is resolved, then make sure Python actually implements
the encoding.
4. On the event of an error or unknown codec, revert to fallbacks
(UTF-8 on Darwin, ASCII on everything else).
5. On the encoding is 'mac-roman' on Darwin, use UTF-8 as 'mac-roman' was
a bug on older Python releases.
On a side note, it would seem that the encoding only matters for when SVN
does not yet support ``--xml`` and when getting repository and svn version
numbers. The ``--xml`` technique should yield UTF-8 according to some
messages on the SVN mailing lists. So if the version numbers are always
7-bit ASCII clean, it may be best to only support the file parsing methods
for legacy SVN releases and support for SVN without the subprocess command
would simple go away as support for the older SVNs does.
---
1.4
---
* `Issue #27 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/27>`_: ``easy_install`` will now use credentials from .pypirc if
present for connecting to the package index.
* `Pull Request #21 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/pull-request/21>`_: Omit unwanted newlines in ``package_index._encode_auth``
when the username/password pair length indicates wrapping.
<https://pypi.python.org/pypi/backports.ssl_match_hostname>`_ for backport
implementation if present.
* Correct NameError in ``ssl_support`` module (``socket.error``).
---
1.2
---
* `Issue #26 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/26>`_: Add support for SVN 1.7. Special thanks to Philip Thiem for the
contribution.
* `Issue #93 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/93>`_: Wheels are now distributed with every release. Note that as
reported in `Issue #108 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/108>`_, as of Pip 1.4, scripts aren't installed properly
from wheels. Therefore, if using Pip to install setuptools from a wheel,
the ``easy_install`` command will not be available.
* Setuptools "natural" launcher support, introduced in 1.0, is now officially
supported.
-----
1.1.7
-----
* Fixed behavior of NameError handling in 'script template (dev).py' (script
launcher for 'develop' installs).
* ``ez_setup.py`` now ensures partial downloads are cleaned up following
a failed download.
* `Distribute #363 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/363>`_ and `Issue #55 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/55>`_: Skip an sdist test that fails on locales
other than UTF-8.
-----
1.1.6
-----
* `Distribute #349 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/349>`_: ``sandbox.execfile`` now opens the target file in binary
mode, thus honoring a BOM in the file when compiled.
-----
1.1.5
-----
* `Issue #69 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/69>`_: Second attempt at fix (logic was reversed).
* `Issue #69 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/69>`_: Correct issue where 404 errors are returned for URLs with
fragments in them (such as #egg=).
-----
1.1.1
-----
* `Issue #75 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/75>`_: Add ``--insecure`` option to ez_setup.py to accommodate
environments where a trusted SSL connection cannot be validated.
* `Issue #76 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/76>`_: Fix AttributeError in upload command with Python 2.4.
---
1.1
---
* `Issue #71 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/71>`_ (`Distribute #333 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/333>`_): EasyInstall now puts less emphasis on the
condition when a host is blocked via ``--allow-hosts``.
* `Issue #72 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/72>`_: Restored Python 2.4 compatibility in ``ez_setup.py``.
---
1.0
---
* `Issue #60 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/60>`_: On Windows, Setuptools supports deferring to another launcher,
such as Vinay Sajip's `pylauncher <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/pylauncher>`_
(included with Python 3.3) to launch console and GUI scripts and not install
its own launcher executables. This experimental functionality is currently
only enabled if the ``SETUPTOOLS_LAUNCHER`` environment variable is set to
"natural". In the future, this behavior may become default, but only after
it has matured and seen substantial adoption. The ``SETUPTOOLS_LAUNCHER``
also accepts "executable" to force the default behavior of creating launcher
executables.
* `Issue #63 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/63>`_: Bootstrap script (ez_setup.py) now prefers Powershell, curl, or
wget for retrieving the Setuptools tarball for improved security of the
install. The script will still fall back to a simple ``urlopen`` on
platforms that do not have these tools.
* `Issue #65 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/65>`_: Deprecated the ``Features`` functionality.
* `Issue #52 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/52>`_: In ``VerifyingHTTPSConn``, handle a tunnelled (proxied)
connection.
Backward-Incompatible Changes
=============================
This release includes a couple of backward-incompatible changes, but most if
not all users will find 1.0 a drop-in replacement for 0.9.
* `Issue #50 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/50>`_: Normalized API of environment marker support. Specifically,
removed line number and filename from SyntaxErrors when returned from
`pkg_resources.invalid_marker`. Any clients depending on the specific
string representation of exceptions returned by that function may need to
be updated to account for this change.
* `Issue #50 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/50>`_: SyntaxErrors generated by `pkg_resources.invalid_marker` are
normalized for cross-implementation consistency.
* Removed ``--ignore-conflicts-at-my-risk`` and ``--delete-conflicting``
options to easy_install. These options have been deprecated since 0.6a11.
-----
0.9.8
-----
* `Issue #53 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/53>`_: Fix NameErrors in `_vcs_split_rev_from_url`.
-----
0.9.7
-----
* `Issue #49 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/49>`_: Correct AttributeError on PyPy where a hashlib.HASH object does
not have a `.name` attribute.
* `Issue #34 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/34>`_: Documentation now refers to bootstrap script in code repository
referenced by bookmark.
* Add underscore-separated keys to environment markers (markerlib).
-----
0.9.6
-----
* `Issue #44 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/44>`_: Test failure on Python 2.4 when MD5 hash doesn't have a `.name`
* `Pull Request #35 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/pull-request/35>`_: In `Buildout #64 <https://github.com/buildout/buildout/issues/64>`_, it was reported that
under Python 3, installation of distutils scripts could attempt to copy
the ``__pycache__`` directory as a file, causing an error, apparently only
under Windows. Easy_install now skips all directories when processing
metadata scripts.
------
0.6.35
------
Note this release is backward-incompatible with distribute 0.6.23-0.6.34 in
how it parses version numbers.
* `Distribute #278 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/278>`_: Restored compatibility with distribute 0.6.22 and setuptools
0.6. Updated the documentation to match more closely with the version
parsing as intended in setuptools 0.6.
------
0.6.34
------
* `Distribute #341 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/341>`_: 0.6.33 fails to build under Python 2.4.
------
0.6.33
------
* Fix 2 errors with Jython 2.5.
* Fix 1 failure with Jython 2.5 and 2.7.
* Disable workaround for Jython scripts on Linux systems.
* `Distribute #336 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/336>`_: `setup.py` no longer masks failure exit code when tests fail.
* Fix issue in pkg_resources where try/except around a platform-dependent
import would trigger hook load failures on Mercurial. See pull request 32
for details.
* `Distribute #341 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/341>`_: Fix a ResourceWarning.
------
0.6.32
------
* Fix test suite with Python 2.6.
* Fix some DeprecationWarnings and ResourceWarnings.
* `Distribute #335 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/335>`_: Backed out `setup_requires` superceding installed requirements
until regression can be addressed.
------
0.6.31
------
* `Distribute #303 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/303>`_: Make sure the manifest only ever contains UTF-8 in Python 3.
* `Distribute #329 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/329>`_: Properly close files created by tests for compatibility with
Jython.
* Work around `Jython #1980 <http://bugs.jython.org/issue1980>`_ and `Jython #1981 <http://bugs.jython.org/issue1981>`_.
* `Distribute #334 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/334>`_: Provide workaround for packages that reference `sys.__stdout__`
such as numpy does. This change should address
`virtualenv `#359 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/359>`_ <https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/issues/359>`_ as long
as the system encoding is UTF-8 or the IO encoding is specified in the
environment, i.e.::
PYTHONIOENCODING=utf8 pip install numpy
* Fix for encoding issue when installing from Windows executable on Python 3.
* `Distribute #323 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/323>`_: Allow `setup_requires` requirements to supercede installed
requirements. Added some new keyword arguments to existing pkg_resources
methods. Also had to updated how __path__ is handled for namespace packages
to ensure that when a new egg distribution containing a namespace package is
placed on sys.path, the entries in __path__ are found in the same order they
would have been in had that egg been on the path when pkg_resources was
first imported.
------
0.6.30
------
* `Distribute #328 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/328>`_: Clean up temporary directories in distribute_setup.py.

* Merged pull request `#23 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/23>`_ to fix https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/issues/301.
* If Sphinx is installed, the `upload_docs` command now runs `build_sphinx`
* `Distribute #320 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/320>`_: Fix check for "createable" in distribute_setup.py.
* `Distribute #305 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/305>`_: Remove a warning that was triggered during normal operations.

* `Distribute #303 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/303>`_: Read manifest file with UTF-8 encoding under Python 3.
* `Distribute #301 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/301>`_: Allow to run tests of namespace packages when using 2to3.
* `Distribute #304 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/304>`_: Prevent import loop in site.py under Python 3.3.
* `Distribute #283 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/283>`_: Reenable scanning of `*.pyc` / `*.pyo` files on Python 3.3.
* `Distribute #299 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/299>`_: The develop command didn't work on Python 3, when using 2to3,
as the egg link would go to the Python 2 source. Linking to the 2to3'd code
in build/lib makes it work, although you will have to rebuild the module
before testing it.
* `Distribute #306 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/306>`_: Even if 2to3 is used, we build in-place under Python 2.
* `Distribute #307 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/307>`_: Prints the full path when .svn/entries is broken.
* `Distribute #313 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/313>`_: Support for sdist subcommands (Python 2.7)
* `Distribute #314 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/314>`_: test_local_index() would fail an OS X.
* `Distribute #310 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/310>`_: Non-ascii characters in a namespace __init__.py causes errors.
* `Distribute #218 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/218>`_: Improved documentation on behavior of `package_data` and
`include_package_data`. Files indicated by `package_data` are now included
in the manifest.
* `distribute_setup.py` now allows a `--download-base` argument for retrieving
distribute from a specified location.
------

------
* Support current snapshots of CPython 3.3.
* Distribute now recognizes README.rst as a standard, default readme file.
* Exclude 'encodings' modules when removing modules from sys.modules.
Workaround for `#285 <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/285>`_.
* `Distribute #231 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/231>`_: Don't fiddle with system python when used with buildout
(bootstrap.py)
------
0.6.26
------
* `Distribute #183 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/183>`_: Symlinked files are now extracted from source distributions.
* `Distribute #227 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/227>`_: Easy_install fetch parameters are now passed during the
installation of a source distribution; now fulfillment of setup_requires
dependencies will honor the parameters passed to easy_install.
------

on late releases of Python.
* `Distribute #272 <https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/272>`_: Prevent TypeError when namespace package names are unicode
and single-install-externally-managed is used. Also fixes PIP issue
449.
