Follow the below steps to install the Setuptools package on Linux using the setup.py file: Step 1: Download the latest source package of Setuptools for Python3 from the website. Step 3: Go to the setuptools-60.5. 0 folder and enter the following command to install the package.
How to Install setuptools on Windows? Type "cmd" in the search bar and hit Enter to open the command line. Type “ pip install setuptools ” (without quotes) in the command line and hit Enter again. This installs setuptools for your default Python installation.
Setuptools is a package development process library designed to facilitate packaging Python projects by enhancing the Python standard library distutils (distribution utilities). It includes: Python package and module definitions.
Setuptools 0.7 and later supports Python 3.
Setuptools was in practice unmaintained for a long time, and this prompted several people to join together and make a fork, called "Distribute", which was ported to Python 3 since 2009.
However in 2013 the projects merged, and Setuptools and Distribute are now the same thing. Installing Distribute will install an empty package that does nothing but install Setuptools.
