Hello! This is about using only `pyproject.toml` for packaging https://github.com/django/django/pull/15874
The main question I think as Nick asked is whether it's okay to remove support for `python setup.py bdist_rpm`. As I mention in the OP: 1. Fedora does not use that <https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-django/blob/rawhide/f/python-django.spec> for its packaging and even recommends against <https://developer.fedoraproject.org/tech/languages/python/django-installation.html> using their RPM unless developing a package specific to their ecosystem 2. "all direct invocations of setup.py are effectively deprecated <https://blog.ganssle.io/articles/2021/10/setup-py-deprecated.html>" 3. Similar to 2, the bdist_rpm code <https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/blob/main/setuptools/_distutils/command/bdist_rpm.py> is part of distutils which is officially deprecated <https://peps.python.org/pep-0632/> What does everyone think? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers (Contributions to Django itself)" group.
