Until now I have been developing on a Windows 7 system. Recently i had to reset my entire dev enviromemt on a Windows XP system. My paver builds stopped working, i traced the reason for the failure to this bug. filled on paths.py [ https://github.com/dottedmag/path.py/issues/16 ].
Since paver is using a custom edited version of this file, the solution does not seem to be a simple 'update the paths.py module'. It also looks like there isnt a build of paver with the patch merged in.
Has someone else encountered this problem, whats the workaround that you came up with?
