- Update to version 1.1.6:
+ Distribute #349: ``sandbox.execfile`` now opens the target file in binary
mode, thus honoring a BOM in the file when compiled.
- Changes from version 1.1.5:
+ Issue #69: Second attempt at fix (logic was reversed).
- Changes from version 1.1.4:
+ Issue #77: Fix error in upload command (Python 2.4).
- Changes from version 1.1.3:
+ Fix NameError in previous patch.
- Changes from version 1.1.2:
+ Issue #69: Correct issue where 404 errors are returned for URLs with
fragments in them (such as #egg=).
- Changes from version 1.1.1:
+ Issue #75: Add ``--insecure`` option to ez_setup.py to accommodate
environments where a trusted SSL connection cannot be validated.
+ Issue #76: Fix AttributeError in upload command with Python 2.4.
- Changes from version 1.1:
+ Issue #71 (Distribute #333): EasyInstall now puts less emphasis on the
condition when a host is blocked via ``--allow-hosts``.
+ Issue #72: Restored Python 2.4 compatibility in ``ez_setup.py``.
- Changes from version 1.0:
+ Issue #60: On Windows, Setuptools supports deferring to another launcher,
such as Vinay Sajip's `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.
