Will the setuptools for windows python 2.7 http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools#files be compatible with a python 3.2.x runtime. The installer fails to detect the python settings during an install. Should I wait for a new release?
Even in a vanilla version of Python 3.7. 6 (installed via pyenv ), the packages installed by default are both pip and setuptools .
To install setuptools visit http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools and follow the instructions for your operating system. Also, check out http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall for more instructions on how to install setup tools.
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. Distribution package metadata.
NOTE: Answer obsolete, Setuptools now works for Python 3. Distribute is deprecated.
Setuptools itself doesn't work on Python 3. But you can use Distribute, a fork and a drop in replacement for setuptools:
http://packages.python.org/distribute/
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/distribute
From the bottom of the page to install distribute:
curl -O http://python-distribute.org/distribute_setup.py
python distribute_setup.py
