I've recently released version 0.3.0 of distlib on PyPI [1]. For
newcomers,distlib is a library of packaging functionality which is intended to
beusable as the basis for third-party packaging tools.
The main changes in this release are as follows:
* Partially addressed #102: modules attribute of InstalledDistribution was
incorrectly computed as a list of bytes, rather than a list of str. This has
now been corrected.
* Updated Locator._get_digest to check PyPI JSON responses for a "digests"
dictionary before trying "algo_digest" keys. Thanks to Jeffery To for the
patch.
* Fixed #123: Improved error message if a resource isn't found.
* Fixed #124: Stopped norm-casing the executable written into shebangs, as it
doesn't work for some non-ASCII paths.
* Fixed #125: Updated launchers with versions that correctly report errors
containing non-ASCII characters. The updated launchers now also support
relative paths (see http://bit.ly/2JxmOoi for more information).
* Fixed #127: Allowed hyphens in flags in export specifications.
* Changed Python version handling to accommodate versions like e.g. 3.10 (no
longer assume a version X.Y where X and Y are single digits).
A more detailed change log is available at [2].
Please try it out, and if you find any problems or have any suggestions for
improvements,please give some feedback using the issue tracker! [3]
