There is no good reason, it was overlooked when merging the cffi bindings into notmuch proper. Is there any reason we can not directly read the toplevel version file from inside setup.py instead of having to add sed hackery?

I don't really see the need for an extra version number for the cffi bindings. I'd be happy to provide the same kind sed hackery to keep the two in sync as is done for the old bindings. Floris might have some good reason in mind for the divergence. I will say it's a pain in Debian to have different binary packages (.deb's) built from the same source with different version numbers. So I'd need to be convinced. ___ notmuch mailing list notmuch@notmuchmail.org https://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch
