I have run into this myself and was surprised unpack_archive didn't support wheels. I would like to see support added, and don't mind doing the work myself. That said, I can see there being an issue with the number of supported zip-based formats ballooning: Java JARs, Android APKs etc. However, wheels have a use case for easily extracting them -- that's how they're installed. I can't see a use case for being able to *easily* extract other formats. If there's no opposition I will start work on a PR. ---------- nosy: +domdfcoding versions: +Python 3.11 -Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39846> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
