I meant distutilsextra (the one we ship with LottaNZB) instead of
distutils that ships with Python.

** Summary changed:

- bin/lottanzb.py not removed when distutils fails in build_i18n.run
+ bin/lottanzb.py not removed when distutilsextra fails in build_i18n.run

** Description changed:

  This causes the problem described below when the user installs LottaNZB
  after that.
  
- This temporary file would be removed again by distutils/auto.py using 
+ This temporary file would be removed again by distutilsextra/auto.py using
  for f in exe_symlinks:
-             os.unlink(f)
+             os.unlink(f)
  It's probably possible to add a work-around to setup.py, but it would probably be a better idea to fix this upstream.

  Hi, I'm pretty new to linux so if you can, please explain as simple as possible :)
  I'm using Opensuse 11.2 x64.
  
  Installed all dependencies, built  it, and then when I run it I get this
  output:
  
  [code]
  lottanzb
  Traceback (most recent call last):
-   File "/usr/local/bin/lottanzb", line 3, in <module>

  [/code]
  
  Any idea what I'm doing wrong here?
  
  Thanks in advance!.

Bug description:
In auto.py, distutilsextra finds extensionless executable scripts which are Python files, and generates a temporary *.py alias, so that they get caught by intltool.

However, if the call to "build_i18n.build_i18n.run(self)" a few lines below fails for some reason, the temporary files will not be removed.

If the user then fixes the problem that caused build_i18n to fail and makes another attempt to install the application, the temporary files will also be installed.

It's probably possible to add a work-around to setup.py, but it would be a better idea to fix this upstream, with a nice "finally" block or something similar.
