Let me ask bluntly: how is it a problem?

$ python3
  >>> import cheroot
  >>> print cheroot.__version__
8.6.0+ds1
  >>> from distutils.version import StrictVersion
  >>> StrictVersion(cheroot.__version__)

If there were any issue with general Python packages versioning in
Debian, perhaps you should contact the Debian Python Maintainers
team?

You could patch this line to solve the problem:

cheroot/__init__.py:13:
__version__ = pkg_resources.get_distribution('cheroot').version

Ok, distutils is unhappy, but:

1. distutils is obsolete: https://peps.python.org/pep-0632/

2. your example doesn't look like a real-world situation.

You err. See the linked issue on launchpad.net. Ceph does not work due to your deviation from upstream version numbers.

Best regards

Heinrich


I don't want to diverge from upstream -- however trivial the patch,
unless there's some actual problem to fix.
