Except Cheeseshop already supports the PEP 314 metadeta fields Requires, Provides and Obsoletes. They are available to all packages built with Python 2.5 distutils. That said, the community still needs to agree on what the names of the requirements are. The Cheeseshop restrictions match package names and that is what 4Suite's PackageManager uses for its lookup routines. It solves the Python version problem by defining the PEP 345 metadata field Requires-Python. -- Jeremy Kloth http://4suite.org/ _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
