The sdist should include all the source files, including tests and documentation. In binary distributions, however, they are just dead weight. Do you want the full documentation and test suites to be installed for every single dependency when you deploy your application? I sure don't.
That's makes a certain amount of sense. It also raises some questions: - are wheels a binary-only distribution? - if yes, we still have to use distutils to make source distributions? - if no, what are the commands to make source vs binary distributions? - is this just a matter of a properly configured setup.py? - if yes, what is that configuration? -- ~Ethan~ _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
