In the meantime, I've gotten rid of 'zope.transaction' and I've
created a new top-level 'transaction' package at http://svn.zope.org/transaction/
. All its tests pass. It depends only on 'zope.interface', and
requires 'zope.testing' for running the tests.
Yay!
I think you are pretty close to done -- if not done. Much thanks. I
wish there was a way to state anti-requirements in setuptools. Then
we could say that transaction had an anti-requirement for ZODB3 < 3.9.
Yeah, especially given that I removed a deprecated method
(beforeCommitHook), so its installation may tend to break running
systems. Maybe I should put it back, as systems will probably
continue to "just work" even if they have this installed for any
system that uses a recent Zope.
BTW, it would be nice to now remove the transaction package from the
ZODB trunk and make it a dependency.
Yes. ZODB's setup.py is polyglotic... it works if setuptools isn't
installed. I suspect it shouldn't continue to given that it now has
an external egg dependency.
