I've released version 0.1.2 of distil, downloadable from [1]. It's based
on distlib 0.1.3, which brings support for PEP 426. The other changes are as
follows:
* Fixed a bug in pre-release handling which occurred when there were
*only* pre-releases available.
* Added support to convert "bdist_wininst" installers to wheels. This is
done by using "distil package", specifying only the wheel format and
giving the path to the installer in place of the source directory.
* Added --wheel-version option to package command to allow specifying
a wheel version when building wheels.
* Fixed bugs in uninstallation code which occurred only for some
installations.
* Fixed a bug in package data installation where data in packages
not explicitly named in package-data was missed.
* Updated "distil link" to show existing links when invoked with
no arguments.
* When building wheels, native executable launchers are not included, and
scripts are not generated from exports.
* Added support for PEP 426 installation hooks.
* Added --target argument to "distil install" to allow partial
installation to arbitrary directories.
* Added --prereleases argument to "distil install", "distil test", and
"distil download" to support inclusion of pre-releases when locating
distributions and performing dependency resolution.
* Numerous documentation updates.
Your feedback will be gratefully received!
