Unfortunately, Setuptools will pick the latest version and won't care about beta tags (zc.buildout has such feature -- "prefer-final", and Distutils2 too) So I guess the best way with the current eco-system is to avoid pushing any unstable release to PyPI or... if you have the time to do so, push a new 0.7 beta that makes sure people that run on the latest 0.6 can run it -- with deprecation warnings all over the place :) Cheers Tarek > > > > > >> >> -- >> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups >> "sqlalchemy" group. >> To post to this group, send email to sqlalchemy@googlegroups.com. >> To unsubscribe from this group, send email to >> sqlalchemy+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. >> For more options, visit this group at >> http://groups.google.com/group/sqlalchemy?hl=en. >> > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "sqlalchemy" group. > To post to this group, send email to sqlalchemy@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > sqlalchemy+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/sqlalchemy?hl=en. > > -- Tarek Ziadé | http://ziade.org -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
