For any who may be following this thread, I've elected to use the 1.5.1 tarball from Savannah.

Ah, got it. Well, I suggest you should do whichever looks most sensible to you. If the downgrade on PyPI was motivated, but we should probably follow suite. Otherwise, we could simply use the 1.5.1 tarball from Savannah. Thoughts? Ludo’.

I can change the definition to get the tarball from Savannah and its mirrors because we already do that for python-xsge, a similar package by the same developer. signature.asc Description: PGP signature

SGE-Pygame mysteriously downgraded on PyPI
Hello Guix, I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but it seems that our sge-pygame package is failing to build because the package version on PyPI has downgraded from 1.5.1 to 1.5. I'm not sure why this has happened, as the recommended version on the SGE-Pygame website is still 1.5.1. This gives me two questions: 1. Do we have a protocol for dealing with this sort of issue? 2. As I've had no luck searching on my own, where can one keep track of the reasons behind changes like this on PyPI? signature.asc Description: PGP signature
