repoze.tm2 is the "stripped down" version which depends only on the
separate 'transaction' package.  The original 'repoze.tm' depends on ZODB3.

transaction is also used by repoze.tm in non-Zope environments such as
TurboGears 2 and Pylons.  Those tend to not use buildout and certainly
don't want to see all of zope.* pulled in.

The dependency lets us run the tests easily. It's quite stable, so it
doesn't seem to cause any problems if it gets downloaded into a zope
2.10 buildout. You can always use the additional-fake-eggs =
transaction if it's a problem.

The documentation is wrong indeed.

The transaction module has been moved out of the ZODB egg for ZODB trunk
aka 3.9 as far as I know.

That means the stand-alone transaction package can probably not be used
with any ZODB 3.8 versions.

But except the wrong documentation, I don't see a problem with the
release as such. IIRC someone wanted to use it outside the ZODB and it
was moved out and got an early alpha release.

I'd hazard a guess at yet another brown bag release that now no-one 
wants to remove for the same stupid reasons that are always parrotted as 
soon as someone wants to remove something insane from PyPI or another 
source of eggs...

[Zope-dev] weird release of transaction module

2008-08-27 Thread Martijn Faassen
Hi there,

I just looked at the PyPI page of 'transaction':

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/transaction

And I see some weirdnesses:

* it's called 'transaction 1.0a1'

* the 'changes' claim however:

   1.0 (unreleased)

What's up? Clearly something went wrong during the releasing of this 
package, at least documentation-wise. Should be fixed.

Note that zope.sqlalchemy pulls in this package as a dependency, even 
though I don't think ZODB 3.8 comes with that version of transaction...

Regards,

Martijn
