bootstrap.py contains dead links #95

The current version of bootstrap.py seems to be outdated as it contains an URL which leads to 404. Upon calling the URL myself (hint: I would not recommend that), was redirected to a spam site!

See the traceback as below:

[paul@paul-work buildout.python]$ python2 bootstrap.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "bootstrap.py", line 76, in exec(urlopen('http://python-distribute.org/distribute_setup.py').read(), ez) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 154, in urlopen return opener.open(url, data, timeout) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 435, in open response = meth(req, response) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 548, in http_response 'http', request, response, code, msg, hdrs) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 473, in error return self._call_chain(args) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 407, in _call_chain result = func(args) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 556, in http_error_default raise HTTPError(req.get_full_url(), code, msg, hdrs, fp) urllib2.HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found

I am running Python2.7.18 with the current Manjaro Linux.

Yeah, distribute_setup.py is long, long dead. I'll see how to best go about making this work again.

FWIW, it 'works' on Github Actions, where the python command is Python 2.7.12.

Actually, looking at your traceback and the code, you are not using the bootstrap.py file as included in this repo, so this doesn't appear to be applicable here.

I do have to rip out the distribute switch and codepath, but that's not the default.
