===============================
 pyutilib.virtualenv CHANGELOG
===============================

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1.4.3
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Update to package README files to point to the new PyUtilib? mailing lists.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1.4.2
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Rework of how the easy_install command is configured. When this is installed
as an executable, then we can't call it with python.

- Attempting to fix portability issue where easy_install has a *.exe extension
that needs to be explicitly used.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1.4.1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Changed the Python path used to execute easy_install. This was
  needed to install with Jython.

- Adding a Python version check to verify that we can
  use the 'timeout' option for urlopen().

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1.4
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Changing the semantics of the --config option. By default, this
  clears the initial configuration information. The --keep-config option
  can be used to retain this config information.

- Using subversion for listing subversion web directories. This
  eliminates various problems accessing ssl authenticated sites from
  behind a proxy.

  NOTE: there remains an issue getting to https config files from behind
  a proxy, but that will only impact developers. Thus, we'll worry about
  that issue when we really need to.

- Changing the behavior of guess_version. Now, we verify that the
  branch directories exist before get information on them.

  Changed the semantics of the --config option. Now, if a INI file is
  specified, but not available, then the application config_file will
  be used to search for this file.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1.3.1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Restructuring repository access to delay the processing of
  repository versions until the last possible moment.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1.3
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- For offline installation, explicitly add setuptools and pip

- Extension to allow repositories to have a specified revision

- Extension to specify repositories that are not installed within 
  virtual Python;  these are used to define a repository with auxilliary
  directories.

- Reworked the installer logic to find the package root as a separate
  step from the installation process.

- Changed the syntax for specifying auxdirs; this should avoid conflicts
  with software package names that contain '_' characters.

- Added support for a user-specified config file, which may be a URL that
  is loaded.

- Removed support for the '--forum' options, which are Coopr-specific.

- Updates to work with virtualenv 1.4.2, which includes a new install_pip
  function

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1.2
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Bug fix for guess_release() when no release revision is available.

- Renamized the 'dos_cmd' section to 'localize'.

- Update to use /tmp instead of '.' for the temporary directory (on non-windows 
  platforms).

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1.1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Reworked the main() function to catch exceptions in a graceful manner.

- Allow the configuration data to be processed with string templates, and
  template variables are filled using environment variables.

- Write out a config file when installing, which is then used to simplify
  the update process.

- Reworked the rmtree() function to enable more robust file deletions on
  MS Windows.

- Added a 'tests' directory, with a README.txt that describes tests that
  need to be manually applied.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Initial release of PyUtilib package to support customization of 
  VirtualEnv installers.
