Hi,
What is the best practice for creating sdists with varying compression
formats?
I just noticed that the format is largely platform-specific[1]. So I'm
inclined to have pythonpackages.com create all popular formats and make
them available for download, i.e.:
- bzip2
- zip
- gzip
What do pip/easy_install/etc do when they encounter both a .zip and a
.tar.gz, for example? Is it "better" or "worse" to upload more than a
single format?
