Please remove this page or at least the code snippet containing `from distutils.core import setup` on this page: https://docs.python.org/3/distutils/setupscript.html There is the more up to date doc here: https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/packaging-projects/#creating-setup-py Quoting Zen o Py: There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it. Thank you very much! |

There is discussion on pydev about formally deprecating distutils, which would deprecate that snippet. |

That page is documenting distutils, so it is correctly showing a distutils import. The page also starts with a note linking to setuptools doc. Therefore, I would close this ticket. |

In that case, I agree. |

But notice that even agreeing removes 'pending', making it pretty useless. |
