I don't think it's a good idea to have a different name in PKG-INFO
and in the arguments to describe
the same element. we should have the same name everywhere for
consistency at the end.
I don't see anything wrong about adding a simple deprecation warning
here, It won't happen again
for quite a while.
Distutils already had some argument name changes like that for
backward compatiblity (licence<->license) but they were not
displaying any warning.
What would be the problem with having both sets work and not deprecate
either? (ie: make them synonyms of each other?)
cheers,
