This is an InstallationIssue. Please ask on the MailingList or on the IrcChannel.

I think this has been brought up before on the MailingList, and the reason was that trac-digest.py (htdigest.py actually) is part of the contrib and this doesn't get installed when using the bdist_wininst installer.

I wonder if we shouldn't fix this and find a place to install those contrib files. At the very least mention where to find them, in TracOnWindows.

And there's a similar issue with the sample-plugins, if I'm not mistaken.

Opinions?

They would typically go into /usr/share/trac on *nix, but I don't know where they would fit on Windows. No idea how to make setuptools place them at the right location for all platforms either. How do you install documentation with setuptools?

We could also just install the executables in the same way as tracd and trac-admin, and place the sample plugins into a tracext package. Yeah, I think I like the tracext package. Reminds me of Mercurial.

comment:8:ticket:10975 suggests the possibility of moving htpasswd.py and htdigest.py to the trac package. I'm considering that they should go in trac.auth, or trac.account (with the possible future integration of ​AccountManagerPlugin).

Narrowing focus for milestone:1.2. Please move ticket to milestone:1.2 if you intend to fix it.
