Hi,
I am pleased to announce a new release of bento, a packaging
solution for
python which aims at reproducibility, extensibility and simplicity. You can
take a look at its main features on bento's main documentation page
(http://cournape.github.com/Bento). The main features of this 0.0.5
release
are:
- All python versions from 2.4 up to 3.1 now pass the test suite
(3.2 will
follow once a distribute issue with 3.2 is fixed)
- If run under a virtual environment (virtualenv), bento will
install the
package inside the virtualenvironment by default
- Internal changes to enable easier change of build tool (an
example for simple extensions is available for waf 1.6.x)
- Added experimental distutils compatibility layer so that one can
write a
setup.py which will pick up all information from bento.info.
This enables
projects using bento to be able to use tools such as pip.
Bento now has its own mailing list: [email protected]. If you are
curious about
bento, I will present it at pycon 2011 as a poster.
cheers,
David
