Lately we've had a couple of users complain that make fails because the python2 install requires mock, and latest mock now requires a more recent version of setuptools than their distribution provides.

mock: mock requires setuptools>=17.1

Can we pin mock at a lower version to prevent this issue?

This sounds fairly simple to implement but I might be wrong. If it's just a matter of some SQL-trickery I could give it a try.

As reported by Michael Macnair in the mailing list (Thanks!):

media_types/__init__.py:109:
 if filename.find('.') > 0:

should be:

 if filename.find('.') >= 0:

Because otherwise files of the form "./blah.mp4" don't work, which happens with the localfiles plugin.

Ditto for line 87.

Cheers, Michael
