> Why do we keep setuptools? I agree; would be good to remove it if possible. There are many packages that fail to build without Setuptools being present or --use-pep517 indicated. It would be nice if pip could make --use-pep517 the default, update that in Python, and then remove Setuptools. I would expect that approach will cause a great deal less turmoil in the ecosystem. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41490> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
