About setuptools
14:46 <ssbr`> nedbat: looks like this will do the right thing by munging sys.path
14:46 <ssbr`> *sighhhh*
14:47 <ssbr`> _habnabit: fine whatever you win, setuptools, woo
14:47 saschpe → zz_saschpe
14:47 — ssbr` cheers halfheartedly. quarterheartedly. notheartedly.
14:47 → Avaris and linux-fox joined ⇐ ruukasu and zoso quit
14:48 <nedbat> ssbr`: there's a reason people use setuptools
14:48 ⇐ linux-fox quit (~netinvman@122.156.252.10) Client Quit
14:48 <ionelmc> ssbr`: past setuptools trauma?
14:48 <ssbr`> ionelmc: I've spent years helping people debug setuptools' mistakes and overall crappiness
14:48 <ssbr`> but it won, I guess
14:48 <ionelmc> show us on the doll where setuptools has touched your package inappropriately :-)
14:49 <ronny> i refactored the setuptools develop/install commands once for user-site support, im still not done lickin the wounds
14:49 <ronny> ionelmc: *proceeds to take the machete and push it trough te pupped*
14:49 ⇐ OrangeTux quit ↔ linux-fox popped in
14:51 <ionelmc> ronny: but that's fine, you can't really do proper packaging if you have a soul
14:51 <ionelmc> it needs to be scrubbed away
14:52 → alkoma and linux-fox joined
14:53 <ronny> well, on the plus side one no longer feels guilty about other fun details of life
