Investigating the issue #6716 I reported earlier, I've been trying to build Windows MSI installer package of Python 3.1 on my own. I checked out the svn source, built things with Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition, and tried to make MSI package in Tools\msi directory. When I run Tools\msi\msi.py in Tools\msi directory, the following error occurs: Traceback (most recent call last): File "msi.py", line 178, in <module> if msilib.pe_type(dll_path) != msilib.pe_type("msisupport.dll"): File "E:\python31svnbuild\Tools\msi\msilib.py", line 665, in pe_type header = open(path, "rb").read(1000) IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'msisupport.dll' It seems that msilib.pe_type("msisupport.dll") is called before msisupport.dll is created. I read msi.py and learned that msilib.pe_type("msisupport.dll") (line 178) is executed before os.system("nmake /nologo /c /f msisupport.mak") (line 372) is executed in add_ui(), which is called at line 1299. So I made a patch to make msi.py to see if the file "msisupport.dll" exists, and if it does, check if the dll is for the correct architecture. |

Why did you assign this to me? I don't know why my name is on this bug in the first place. Is it possible you were thinking of another Larry? |

This is now fixed, though in a different way. |
