Use this command to launch + distutils-only packages under setuptools in the same way that + pip does, causing the setuptools monkeypatching of distutils + to be invoked prior to invoking a script. Useful for debugging + or otherwise installing a distutils-only package under + setuptools when pip isn't available or otherwise does not + expose the desired functionality. For example:: + + $ python -m setuptools.launch setup.py develop + 19.5 ---- |
