All,

I think I'm getting an error with setup.py because $LastChangeRevision$ isn't defined?

== details == I'm trying to update python-pefile.

With the lastest released tarball it fails when I run "python

setup.py build".

I assume it is a local openSUSE error?

The setup.py file has: download_url = 'http://pefile.googlecode.com/files/pefile-%s.tar.gz'

pefile.__version__,

in pefile.py: __revision__ = "$LastChangedRevision$" __version__ = '1.2.10-%d' % int( __revision__[21:-2] )

But I have no idea what $LastChangeRevision$ is or where it is defined.

This value is automatically expanded on checkout by CVS (and I think SVN can be configured to do so as well) to the revision this file was last changed in.

For SVN this will generate a revision number like 1234. For CVS I am not sure, have not used it in ages.

Thanks, I'll have to do a patch to hard code it. At least I know what value it should be. I wish Google upstream projects were better behaved. In my experience they pay no attention to issues they cause packagers. Greg -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.
