Re: [Fab-user] XFiles: Fabric contrib module for XML files

[Juha Mustonen]

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for the input and valid points. But having a typo with module name? No 
wonder why I also had problems installing it from PyPI (and still managed not 
to spot the issue) :)

I've now uploaded the module with correct name - and with the exception of 
dump bin package, both pip and easy_install should be install it without 
problems (that is why I left it out, for now). I wonder the binary option is 
missing the setup.py... oh, well. Let me know if you still face any problems. 
Documentation is also being updated.

Br,
