[issue27888] Hide pip install/uninstall windows in setup

Steve Dower report at bugs.python.org
Mon Aug 29 16:49:36 EDT 2016


New submission from Steve Dower:

The console window for pip that appears during setup prevents us from having a truly silent install.

This patch uses the CAQuietExec task from WiX, extracted and checked in directly (the binary blob is omitted from the patch), to run the pip install/uninstall.

It also makes the task non-vital, which will prevent uninstall from failing when pip cannot be removed.
