One other question: Is it just examples or is "build" being defined as "build a wheel"?
i.e. there are times one might want to build a package without building a wheel -- just it install it yourself, or to put it in another package format -- conda, rpm, what have you. In conda's case, building a wheel, and then installing it would work fine, but I'm not sure we want to lock that down as the only way to build a package. Granted, if all it means is that someone will download an unnecessary dependency, big deal. I'm also a bit confused about whether we're trying to specify the dependencies required simply to run the build tool itself, or the dependencies required to actually do the build -- or the latter being saved for another day? -CHB -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception chris.bar...@noaa.gov
