... < V('1.0.dev456') ... < V('1.0') ... < V('1.0.dev456post623') Looks like a typo or very un-intuitive. It doesn't seem right that a "dev" version sorts after a full release. > > - PEP 376 | status : waiting for Phillip complementary feedback (and > anyone else of course) > > - up-to-date PEP proposal : > http://bitbucket.org/tarek/pep376/src/tip/docs/pep-0376 Will there be a way to tell distutils that it is not responsible for a package and should error when trying to uninstall it?
