I've been using 2.7.0-b1 for a while, so I figured I'd take a look at b2 now. However : $ python2.3 setup.py install --prefix /usr/local/opt/zope-2.7.0-b2 running install running build running build_py running build_ext running install_lib running install_data running install running build running build_py running install_lib running install running build running build_scripts error: mkpath: 'name' must be a string (got None) $ The build succeeds but the install fails. Is something wrong on my system or has the setup.py script changed in some way? -D PS. This is on a debian testing/unstable system. PPS. You don't see any actions in the steps that didn't fail because they already completed successfully the first time. If you want to see more output I can clean out the build and run it again. -- In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps. Proverbs 16:9 http://dman13.dyndns.org/~dman/
