[reportlab-users] ReportLab 2.7 accelerators

[Andy Robinson]

Lele, what platform are you on?

We have been testing this every way we could think of on Ubuntu, Mac OS and
Windows for quite a few days.   If I un-tar-gz that file, there is
definitely a src/rl_addons/rl_accel subdirectory containing the code, and
the top level 'setup.py install' worked for all of us on the above
platforms.  I can only presume that in your environment the setup script is
somehow not finding that subdirectory.

The reduction in file size is possibly because we have been deliberately
removing obsolete documentation and examples.
