Thanks Jon, get works fine now, tested with cygport 0.37.1 on py-lic- expr
deprecated and unreleased 30.4.2, but prep SRC_DIR needs to match the
distribution file name:
Oh, that's a bit disappointing.
As you might have guessed, I just tested that 'fetch' worked correctly and
foolishly assumed that the testsuite would catch any problems during the build.
So either there's a missing test of this functionality (hopefully), or it's more
complex than just arranging to also set SRC_DIR in this cygclass.
$ cygport --debug python-license-expression.cygport get prep

The original PEPs have now been deprecated and the content moved into the main
PyPA specs which refer to normalization of binary and source distribution and
file names, following the binary distribution file name rules s/[-._]/_/g etc.
to remove any excess hyphens or dots from source and binary distribution and
file names, including distribution archive directory and metadata names which
must match, but not PyPI package or project names which remain unnormalized.
https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/source- distribution-
format/
I have no idea if this is telling me some action needs to be taken, or if this
is all just for information.
Basically the latter, but it also states that the distribution archive directory
name SRC_DIR must be the same as the normalized distribution file name excluding
version and suffix, so SRC_DIR should also be set by the code normalizing the
name for the SRC_URI.
