However, if flit is now adding its own shim implcitly, then the
answer would just be "Yes".
There's no need for a shim; basically use flit to build a wheel and
then use the wheel installation macros instead.
Wait, we have wheel installation macros?
/me goes and checks
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-rpm-macros/blob/master/f/macros.python
Huh, so we do. Somehow I managed to miss that :)
How would folks feel about adding a link to the dist-git macro file to
the macros section in
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Python#Macros ?
I'm not currently inclined to add the information directly to the wiki
page as:
- I don't like wikis in general as a docs management tool
- the wiki only shows one version, but the RPM with the default macros
is branched along with the rest of Fedora
Adding the link makes sense to me. Adding all the macros definition to
the wiki does not make sense to me, but form different reasons. I think
that having %py3_build_egg and %py3_install_egg there is just not
necessary. Since there are more files at [0] I'd just add that link.

About flit:
* is this way of creating Python distributions getting more and
more popular?
* if so, should we add a new section of the guidelines? something like
"Packaging setup.py-less projects"?
We could potentially add something to
https://fedora-python.readthedocs.io/ about Fedora's RPM packaging tools
for Python projects, but that would be significantly more work than just
linking to dist-git.
Cheers,
Nick.
