Could someone remind me if the bug happens during packing (and breaks the .tgz for everyone, which gets noticed and fixed soon) or during unpacking (and affects only a small percentage of users; those who still use python 2.4, and is therefore more insidious)?
It only happens on unpacking. So the person making the tgz usually won't ever notice and only get mysterious reports about broken installs later on. Hanno
