[gentoo-portage-dev] Symlinks with distutils

[Michael A. Smith]

In theory, doing symlinks with distutils isn't a big deal, but
distutils.core.setup doesn't have the capability built in. (distutils.file_util
 does, but it's not clear how to trigger that intuitively within setup().) So
for the changes to gentoolkit for 0.3, I vote we keep the ebuild dosyms, and
leave distutils out of the business of symlinks, to be revisited at a later
date. Agree?

Best wishes,
