[Bug 1165355] Re: UPDATE REQUEST: python27-distribute 0.6.36 is available upstream

 

We have run into a hiccup in regards to this package.  It turns out that
only RHEL/CentOS 5 packages were built back on 2013-04-08.  It is
unfortunate that the RHEL/CentOS 6 packages were not built at the same
time as the RHEL/CentOS 5 packages.  This is a situation we try to
avoid, as we like to keep all versions of a package on the same release
schedule.

Looking over the change log, this release is only to fix an issue within
Windows:

------
0.6.36
------

* Pull Request #35: In `Buildout `issue 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.


Since this release does not effect Linux, I am going to go head and mark the RHEL/CentOS 5 packages as stable-candidate as they have been within the testing repos for two weeks.  The RHEL/CentOS 6 packages have just been built and have been tagged as  testing-candidate.  If no issues are reported within the next two weeks, the RHEL/CentOS 6 packages will then get pushed to the stable repos.

Sorry for any confusion.
