Éric Araujo <mer...@netwok.org> added the comment: I initially had a lot of things to reply to but then though it would be unpractical to reply, then the usual life/work/time thing got in the way and I busied myself with easier issues.
As Nick said on python-ideas, I should write a PEP, which would probably be a better support to summarize the requirements, issues and choices. The feature deadline is June, so there’s still a bit of time to work on that bdist format, decide if we agree on one of bdist_wininst/bdist_msi/new-shiny-bdist-for-windows-by-jkloth, and in parallel to that packaging could also be documented as experimental (the solution suggested by Guido when ruling on the __preview__ package PEP). And in the worst case a PyPI-relased bdist_simple would be dead-easy to install and register with packaging (we don’t have auto-discovery of commands, but easy registration is here). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13189> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
