Fixes #54

v60.2.0
-------


Changes
^^^^^^^
* #2974: Setuptools now relies on the Python logging infrastructure to log messages. Instead of using ``distutils.log.*``, use ``logging.getLogger(name).*``.
* #2987: Sync with pypa/distutils@2def21c, including fix for missing get_versions attribute (#2969), more reliance on sysconfig from stdlib.

Misc
^^^^
* #2962: Avoid attempting to use local distutils when the presiding version of Setuptools on the path doesn't have one.
* #2983: Restore 'add_shim' as the way to invoke the hook. Avoids compatibility issues between different versions of Setuptools with the distutils local implementation.


v60.1.1
-------


Misc
^^^^
* #2980: Bypass distutils loader when setuptools module is no longer available on sys.path.


v60.1.0
-------


Changes
^^^^^^^
* #2958: In distutils_hack, only add the metadata finder once. In ensure_local_distutils, rely on a context manager for reliable manipulation.
* #2963: Merge with pypa/distutils@a5af364910. Includes revisited fix for pypa/distutils#15 and improved MinGW/Cygwin support from pypa/distutils#77.


v60.0.5
-------


Misc
^^^^
* #2960: Install schemes fall back to default scheme for headers.


v60.0.4

v60.0.1
-------


Misc
^^^^
* #2944: Add support for extended install schemes in easy_install.


v60.0.0
-------


Breaking Changes
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* #2896: Setuptools once again makes its local copy of distutils the default. To override, set SETUPTOOLS_USE_DISTUTILS=stdlib.

- Update from 59.5.0 to 62.0.0
- Update of rootfile
- Changelog
	v62.0.0
	Breaking Changes
	* #3151: Made ``setup.py develop --user`` install to the user site packages directory even if it is disabled in the current interpreter.
	Changes
	* #3153: When resolving requirements use both canonical and normalized names -- by :user:`ldaniluk`
	* #3167: Honor unix file mode in ZipFile when installing wheel via ``install_as_egg`` -- by :user:`delijati`
	Misc
	* #3088: Fixed duplicated tag with the ``dist-info`` command.
	* #3247: Fixed problem preventing ``readme`` specified as dynamic in ``pyproject.toml``
	  from being dynamically specified in ``setup.py``.
	v61.3.1
	Misc
	* #3233: Included missing test file ``setupcfg_examples.txt`` in ``sdist``.
	* #3233: Added script that allows developers to download ``setupcfg_examples.txt`` prior to
	  running tests. By caching these files it should be possible to run the test suite
	  offline.
	v61.3.0
	Changes
	* #3229: Disabled automatic download of ``trove-classifiers`` to facilitate reproducibility.
	Misc
	* #3229: Updated ``pyproject.toml`` validation via ``validate-pyproject`` v0.7.1.
	* #3229: New internal tool made available for updating the code responsible for
	  the validation of ``pyproject.toml``.
	  This tool can be executed via ``tox -e generate-validation-code``.
	v61.2.0
	Changes
	* #3215: Ignored a subgroup of invalid ``pyproject.toml`` files that use the ``[project]``
	  table to specify only ``requires-python`` (**transitional**).
	  .. warning::
	     Please note that future releases of setuptools will halt the build process
	     if a ``pyproject.toml`` file that does not match doc:`the PyPA Specification
	     <PyPUG:specifications/declaring-project-metadata>` is given.
	* #3215: Updated ``pyproject.toml`` validation, as generated by ``validate-pyproject==0.6.1``.
	* #3218: Prevented builds from erroring if the project specifies metadata via
	  ``pyproject.toml``, but uses other files (e.g. ``setup.py``) to complement it,
	  without setting ``dynamic`` properly.
	  .. important::
	     This is a **transitional** behaviour.
	     Future releases of ``setuptools`` may simply ignore externally set metadata
	     not backed by ``dynamic`` or even halt the build with an error.
	* #3224: Merge changes from pypa/distutils@e1d5c9b1f6
	Documentation changes
	* #3217: Fixed typo in ``pyproject.toml`` example in Quickstart -- by :user:`pablo-cardenas`.
	Misc
	* #3223: Fixed missing requirements with environment markers when
	  ``optional-dependencies`` is set in ``pyproject.toml``.
	v61.1.1
	Misc
	* #3212: Fixed missing dependencies when running ``setup.py install``.
	  Note that calling ``setup.py install`` directly is still deprecated and
	  will be removed in future versions of ``setuptools``.
	  Please check the release notes for :ref:`setup_install_deprecation_note`.
	v61.1.0
	Deprecations
	* #3206: Changed ``setuptools.convert_path`` to an internal function that is not exposed
	  as part of setuptools API.
	  Future releases of ``setuptools`` are likely to remove this function.
	Changes
	* #3202: Changed behaviour of auto-discovery to not explicitly expand ``package_dir``
	  for flat-layouts and to not use relative paths starting with ``./``.
	* #3203: Prevented ``pyproject.toml`` parsing from overwriting
	  ``dist.include_package_data`` explicitly set in ``setup.py`` with default
	  value.
	* #3208: Added a warning for non existing files listed with the ``file`` directive in
	  ``setup.cfg`` and ``pyproject.toml``.
	* #3208: Added a default value for dynamic ``classifiers`` in ``pyproject.toml`` when
	  files are missing and errors being ignored.
	* #3211: Disabled auto-discovery when distribution class has a ``configuration``
	  attribute (e.g. when the ``setup.py`` script contains ``setup(...,
	  configuration=...)``).  This is done to ensure extension-only packages created
	  with ``numpy.distutils.misc_util.Configuration`` are not broken by the safe
	  guard
	  behaviour to avoid accidental multiple top-level packages in a flat-layout.
	  .. note::
	     Users that don't set ``packages``, ``py_modules``, or ``configuration`` are
	     still likely to observe the auto-discovery behavior, which may halt the
	     build if the project contains multiple directories and/or multiple Python
	     files directly under the project root.
	     To disable auto-discovery please explicitly set either ``packages`` or
	     ``py_modules``. Alternatively you can also configure :ref:`custom-discovery`.
	v61.0.0
	Deprecations
	* #3068: Deprecated ``setuptools.config.read_configuration``,
	  ``setuptools.config.parse_configuration`` and other functions or classes
	  from ``setuptools.config``.
	  Users that still need to parse and process configuration from ``setup.cfg`` can
	  import a direct replacement from ``setuptools.config.setupcfg``, however this
	  module is transitional and might be removed in the future
	  (the ``setup.cfg`` configuration format itself is likely to be deprecated in the future).
	Breaking Changes
	* #2894: If you purposefully want to create an *"empty distribution"*, please be aware
	  that some Python files (or general folders) might be automatically detected and
	  included.
	  Projects that currently don't specify both ``packages`` and ``py_modules`` in their
	  configuration and contain extra folders or Python files (not meant for distribution),
	  might see these files being included in the wheel archive or even experience
	  the build to fail.
	  You can check details about the automatic discovery (and how to configure a
	  different behaviour) in :doc:`/userguide/package_discovery`.
	* #3067: If the file ``pyproject.toml`` exists and it includes project
	  metadata/config (via ``[project]`` table or ``[tool.setuptools]``),
	  a series of new behaviors that are not backward compatible may take place:
	  - The default value of ``include_package_data`` will be considered to be ``True``.
	  - Setuptools will attempt to validate the ``pyproject.toml`` file according
	    to PEP 621 specification.
	  - The values specified in ``pyproject.toml`` will take precedence over those
	    specified in ``setup.cfg`` or ``setup.py``.
	Changes
	* #2887: **[EXPERIMENTAL]** Added automatic discovery for ``py_modules`` and ``packages``
	  -- by :user:`abravalheri`.
	  Setuptools will try to find these values assuming that the package uses either
	  the *src-layout* (a ``src`` directory containing all the packages or modules),
	  the *flat-layout* (package directories directly under the project root),
	  or the *single-module* approach (an isolated Python file, directly under
	  the project root).
	  The automatic discovery will also respect layouts that are explicitly
	  configured using the ``package_dir`` option.
	  For backward-compatibility, this behavior will be observed **only if both**
	  ``py_modules`` **and** ``packages`` **are not set**.
	  (**Note**: specifying ``ext_modules`` might also prevent auto-discover from
	  taking place)
	  If setuptools detects modules or packages that are not supposed to be in the
	  distribution, please manually set ``py_modules`` and ``packages`` in your
	  ``setup.cfg`` or ``setup.py`` file.
	  If you are using a *flat-layout*, you can also consider switching to
	  *src-layout*.
	* #2887: **[EXPERIMENTAL]** Added automatic configuration for the ``name`` metadata
	  -- by :user:`abravalheri`.
	  Setuptools will adopt the name of the top-level package (or module in the case
	  of single-module distributions), **only when** ``name`` **is not explicitly
	  provided**.
	  Please note that it is not possible to automatically derive a single name when
	  the distribution consists of multiple top-level packages or modules.
	* #3066: Added vendored dependencies for :pypi:`tomli`, :pypi:`validate-pyproject`.
	  These dependencies are used to read ``pyproject.toml`` files and validate them.
	* #3067: **[EXPERIMENTAL]** When using ``pyproject.toml`` metadata,
	  the default value of ``include_package_data`` is changed to ``True``.
	* #3068: **[EXPERIMENTAL]** Add support for ``pyproject.toml`` configuration
	  (as introduced by :pep:`621`). Configuration parameters not covered by
	  standards are handled in the ``[tool.setuptools]`` sub-table.
	  In the future, existing ``setup.cfg`` configuration
	  may be automatically converted into the ``pyproject.toml`` equivalent before taking effect
	  (as proposed in #1688). Meanwhile users can use automated tools like
	  :pypi:`ini2toml` to help in the transition.
	  Please note that the legacy backend is not guaranteed to work with
	  ``pyproject.toml`` configuration.
	  -- by :user:`abravalheri`
	* #3125: Implicit namespaces (as introduced in :pep:`420`) are now considered by default
	  during :doc:`package discovery </userguide/package_discovery>`, when
	  ``setuptools`` configuration and project metadata are added to the
	  ``pyproject.toml`` file.
	  To disable this behaviour, use ``namespaces = False`` when explicitly setting
	  the ``[tool.setuptools.packages.find]`` section in ``pyproject.toml``.
	  This change is backwards compatible and does not affect the behaviour of
	  configuration done in ``setup.cfg`` or ``setup.py``.
	* #3152: **[EXPERIMENTAL]** Added support for ``attr:`` and ``cmdclass`` configurations
	  in ``setup.cfg`` and ``pyproject.toml`` when ``package_dir`` is implicitly
	  found via auto-discovery.
	* #3178: Postponed importing ``ctypes`` when hiding files on Windows.
	  This helps to prevent errors in systems that might not have ``libffi`` installed.
	* #3179: Merge with pypa/distutils@267dbd25ac
	Documentation changes
	* #3172: Added initial documentation about configuring ``setuptools`` via ``pyproject.toml``
	  (using standard project metadata).
	Misc
	* #3065: Refactored ``setuptools.config`` by separating configuration parsing (specific
	  to the configuration file format, e.g. ``setup.cfg``) and post-processing
	  (which includes directives such as ``file:`` that can be used across different
	  configuration formats).
	v60.10.0
	Changes
	* #2971: Deprecated upload_docs command, to be removed in the future.
	* #3137: Use samefile from stdlib, supported on Windows since Python 3.2.
	* #3170: Adopt nspektr (vendored) to implement Distribution._install_dependencies.
	Documentation changes
	* #3144: Added documentation on using console_scripts from setup.py, which was previously only shown in setup.cfg  -- by :user:`xhlulu`
	* #3148: Added clarifications about ``MANIFEST.in``, that include links to PyPUG docs
	  and more prominent mentions to using a revision control system plugin as an
	  alternative.
	* #3148: Removed mention to ``pkg_resources`` as the recommended way of accessing data
	  files, in favour of importlib.resources.
	  Additionally more emphasis was put on the fact that *package data files* reside
	  **inside** the *package directory* (and therefore should be *read-only*).
	Misc
	* #3120: Added workaround for intermittent failures of backend tests on PyPy.
	  These tests now are marked with `XFAIL
	  <https://docs.pytest.org/en/stable/how-to/skipping.html>`_, instead of erroring
	  out directly.
	* #3124: Improved configuration for :pypi:`rst-linker` (extension used to build the
	  changelog).
	* #3133: Enhanced isolation of tests using virtual environments - PYTHONPATH is not leaking to spawned subprocesses  -- by :user:`befeleme`
	* #3147: Added options to provide a pre-built ``setuptools`` wheel or sdist for being
	  used during tests with virtual environments.
	  Paths for these pre-built distribution files can now be set via the environment
	  variables: ``PRE_BUILT_SETUPTOOLS_SDIST`` and ``PRE_BUILT_SETUPTOOLS_WHEEL``.
	v60.9.3
	Misc
	* #3093: Repaired automated release process.
	v60.9.2

	* #2993: Removed workaround in distutils hack for get-pip now that pypa/get-pip#137 is closed.
	* #3085: Setuptools no longer relies on ``pkg_resources`` for entry point handling.
	* #3098: Bump vendored packaging to 21.3.
	* Removed bootstrap script.
	v60.8.2
	Misc
	* #3091: Make ``concurrent.futures`` import lazy in vendored ``more_itertools``
	  package to a  avoid importing threading as a side effect (which caused
	  `gevent/gevent#1865 <https://github.com/gevent/gevent/issues/1865>`__).
	  -- by :user:`maciejp-ro`
	v60.8.1
	Misc
	* #3084: When vendoring jaraco packages, ensure the namespace package is converted to a simple package to support zip importer.
	v60.8.0
	Changes
	* #3085: Setuptools now vendors importlib_resources and importlib_metadata and jaraco.text. Setuptools no longer relies on pkg_resources for ensure_directory nor parse_requirements.

	v60.6.0
	Changes
	* #3043: Merge with pypa/distutils@bb018f1ac3 including consolidated behavior in sysconfig.get_platform (pypa/distutils#104).
	* #3057: Don't include optional ``Home-page`` in metadata if no ``url`` is specified. -- by :user:`cdce8p`
	* #3062: Merge with pypa/distutils@b53a824ec3 including improved support for lib directories on non-x64 Windows builds.
	Documentation changes
	* #2897: Added documentation about wrapping ``setuptools.build_meta`` in a in-tree
	  custom backend. This is a :pep:`517`-compliant way of dynamically specifying
	  build dependencies (e.g. when platform, OS and other markers are not enough).
	  -- by :user:`abravalheri`
	* #3034: Replaced occurrences of the defunct distutils-sig mailing list with pointers
	  to GitHub Discussions.
	  -- by :user:`ashemedai`
	* #3056: The documentation has stopped suggesting to add ``wheel`` to

	v60.5.0
	Changes
	* #2990: Set the ``.origin`` attribute of the ``distutils`` module to the module's ``__file__``.
	v60.4.0
	Changes
	* #2839: Removed ``requires`` sorting when installing wheels as an egg dir.
	* #2953: Fixed a bug that easy install incorrectly parsed Python 3.10 version string.
	* #3006: Fixed startup performance issue of Python interpreter due to imports of
	  costly modules in ``_distutils_hack`` -- by :user:`tiran`
	Documentation changes
	* #2674: Added link to additional resources on packaging in Quickstart guide
	* #3008: "In-tree" Sphinx extension for "favicons" replaced with ``sphinx-favicon``.
	* #3008: SVG images (logo, banners, ...) optimised with the help of the ``scour``
	  package.

	  the Python ecosystem via ``pip`` -- by :user:`abravalheri`
	* #2952: Modified "vendoring" logic to keep license files.
	* #2968: Improved isolation for some tests that where inadvertently using the project
	  root for builds, and therefore creating directories (e.g. ``build``, ``dist``,
	  ``*.egg-info``) that could interfere with the outcome of other tests
	  -- by :user:`abravalheri`.
	* #2968: Introduced new test fixtures ``venv``, ``venv_without_setuptools``,
	  ``bare_venv`` that rely on the ``jaraco.envs`` package.
	  These new test fixtures were also used to remove the (currently problematic)
	  dependency on the ``pytest_virtualenv`` plugin.
	* #2968: Removed ``tmp_src`` test fixture. Previously this fixture was copying all the
	  files and folders under the project root, including the ``.git`` directory,
	  which is error prone and increases testing time.
	  Since ``tmp_src`` was used to populate virtual environments (installing the
	  version of ``setuptools`` under test via the source tree), it was replaced by
	  the new ``setuptools_sdist`` and ``setuptools_wheel`` fixtures (that are build
	  only once per session testing and can be shared between all the workers for
	  read-only usage).
	v60.3.1
