No. The platform name is only included if the distribution has extension modules, because extension modules are what make the egg platform-specific. If there is only Python code and data, then the egg is considered platform independent. > Would there be a workaround? What do you want to work around this *for*? If the egg doesn't contain extension modules, what is platform-specific about it? _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
