The msi.py script for creating an Windows MSI installer from a Python source tree has hardcoded values for "PCBuild." The newer MSVC 2005 build directory is "PCBuild8" and has a slightly different structure. msi.py needs to be changed to be able to work with a 2005-built Python tree as well. |

PCBuild is still the default compiler for Python but any patches are appreciated. You could start by writing a new or updating the old compiler command to support VS 2005. The old distutils.msvccompiler supports only MSVC 6 and 7 but not 8. |

kevinwatters: don't bother fixing msi.py. I'll update it whenever I make a release; there is little point in updating it in-between. |

Just for your information, Kevin: I've created a PCbuild9 directory for VS 2008 Beta 2 in the py3k branch. I've also changed msi.py to work with PCbuild and PCbuild9. |

Python 2.6 and 3.0 are using PCbuild9. |
