Hello, I'm writing in regard to the distutils package for python.
I regularly repackage installers for silent/automated distribution on
numerous Windows PCs throughout an enterprise. Sites such as
AppDeploy (http://www.appdeploy.com) and tools such as WISE all
suggest that this is a pretty common task.
Increasingly, however, I've found that tools like WISE's setup capture
are becoming less relevant for this task. Rather than running...

I'm in a situation where I need to distribute several interdependent
Python packages. There are good reasons not to combine them all into
one package. Distutils doesn't seem to be able to bundle a
heterogeneous mix of multiple packages and modules, and so I've
currently got people launching three installers in the proper sequence
in order to get software installed, which seems needlessly complicated
and confusing. There must be a better...

Hi,
I can find a few questions regarding the use of distutils for making
non-python windows installers, but none of them really helps. Are
there any pointers on how to do this? Can it be done?
A little OT: What about making MSI installation files instead of .exe?
Is it a good idea to consider at all?

Some time ago, I got the idea that I wanted to build image
resources from vector graphic originals, instead of
marshalling hundreds of tiny little icon images by hand.
I wrote "BuildImage" to do this for me, and so far, it
works very well, so I'm trying to make it easier to use
and available to more developers.
There is a brief (and somewhat dated) tutorial explaining
what BuildImage itself does at:

Python 2.4 is built with Microsoft Visiual C++ 7. This means that it
uses msvcr7.dll, which *isn't* a standard part of the windows operating
system. This means that if you build a windows installer using
distutils - it *requires* msvcr7.dll in order to run. This is true even
if your package is a pure python package. This means that when someone
tries to use a windows installer created with Python 2.4, on a machine
with only python 2.3 - it...

Hi folks,
I'm looking at packaging a project I'm working on using distutils. The
project is for Windows and contains a COM server which needs
registration, so the installer needs to be a little more complicated
than usual. Looking at the options for the bdist_wininst command to
distutils, I see it's possible to specify
--install-script=<myinstallscript>
which ought to do the trick. But to use this, myinstallscript itself
must first be...

Hello all.
We don't have admin privs on our Windows boxes, but I'd like to be able
to install a package built using distutils. I was able to install
Python without admin, but when I tried to run the installer for this
package I'm trying to install, I get a message saying that I need admin
privs.
Is there a way around this? Why can't it just put things in
C:\Python23\Lib\site-packages like a good little installer?

Hi.
I built a little installer on windows XP using distutils for my
package. In there i add a few files to the python script directory. I
would like one of these scripts to be the default program to be used by
files with a given extention (e.g. i have an image viewer and would
like it to be used when ever i click on a .gif file). I can do this
manually (through Tools->Folder Options->File Types), but it would be
nicer if the installer...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Hello
I'm a network technician in training and I need your help.
I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs.
The last exercise I practiced was to create a LAN-to-LAN VPN between two Pfsense firewalls, by using IPSEC protocols.
I succeeded, with both firewalls in the same network. But I'm wondering if it's possible to do the same thing, with 2 Pfsense firewalls...
