[Zope-dev] can these wrong DEPENDENCIES.cfg files be removed?

2009-01-27 Thread Brandon Craig Rhodes
We are working on zope.app.renderer and I see that there is a file named
DEPENDENCIES.cfg that lists:

 docutils
 zope.app
 zope.component
 zope.configuration
 zope.interface
 zope.schema
 zope.structuredtext
 zope.testing
 
while the actual package has a different list of dependencies:

 setuptools
 docutils
 zope.component
 zope.configuration
 zope.i18nmessageid
 zope.interface
 zope.publisher
 zope.schema
 zope.structuredtext

 [test]
 zope.app.testing

What is the DEPENDENCIES.cfg file for, and why are the dependencies
listed different than the current ones in setup.py?  Can I just remove
the redundant information in DEPENDENCIES.cfg and have the information
in just one place instead?

AFAIK, these files are for (pre-egg, no-longer-used) zpkg tool. They
are removed in zope.app.renderer's trunk, BTW.

 I certainly hope no one is relying on that old tools!

I care about those files in Zope3/ and ZODB3/, since they are used to create 
the Zope 3 tar ball. Remember, Zope 3.4 will be the *first* release where we 
officially introduce eggs. And I have heard from a lot of people that would 
like to see a couple more TAR ball releases. I have a script to update the 
Zope3/ tree, so it is fairly easy for me to fulfill that request.

Regards,
Stephan

Sure, if you are willing to do the work. And it would still be quiet a 
different release. I will not delay the release of Zope 3.4 waiting for this 
to happen.

The interesting part of the first post was that it indicated that the
DEPENDENCIES.cfg are old and incorrect already.

Why exactly don't you just take everything thats in the Zope3 tree
checkout and ignore those DEPENDENCY.cfg files?

What do people want from a tar release.  Wouldn't their needs be  
adequately met by a source release made with zc.sourcerelease?
