PEP 345 introduces "Requires" and "Provides" wich are are implemented in Distutils and PyP, but are not widely used. 40 out of +4000 if I remember correctly. Martin will correct me here if I am wrong.
Here are the actual numbers of packages that had a certain specifier in atleast one of their releases: - requires: 334 - provides: 84 - obsoletes: 18 (total number of packages in my local database snapshot: 6101) Regards, Martin _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
