Using Paver with Distribute

[Keith Hughitt]

Does anyone know if it is possible use the extended setup parameters from setuptools/distribute (e.g. "use_2to3" and "extra_requires") in the paver sdist task?

Ideally, I would like to be able to use distribute/setuptools for my setup.py file, but paver for other tasks including building a source distribution.

Thanks,

Keith

yes, they should definitely work. If there are some bugs, please
report them.

Unless overwritten, paver should behave exactly like distribute/
setuptools (see http://packages.python.org/Paver/getting_started.html#paver-is-compatible-with-distutils),
so with little trick (http://packages.python.org/Paver/
getting_started.html#but-people-are-used-to-setup-py), you should be
able to have only one codebase for both files.
