According to various Python people, we're not actually supposed to read requirements.txt. That file is explicitly designed for people to individualized deployments. The proper place to get this information is from the egg-info/dist-info data, which is what we read. The fact that some people abuse requirements.txt and have it read in by their setup.py is beside the point. Whatever the setup.py (thus pip/easy_install/etc.) says it needs, the generator will dutifully report. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ python-devel mailing list -- python-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
