Unfortunately, no, not with the current state of the Python package ecosystem. Packages are allowed to define their own dependencies dynamically and conditionally at the time of installation so there's no good way for PyPI to know what dependencies each package has. PEP 518 aims to solve this eventually: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0518/ -- Jeremy Stanley _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
