I'm just wondering: what's the benefit of packaging Python noarch projects in Fedora?
You can use them as requirements for packaged applications.
I can see the reason about packaging architecture specific packages, since they will benefit of optimizations and security flags that Fedora uses, but noarch packages are simply the source code that gets compiled at runtime by the Python interpreter, aren't they? In what way is different from installing them by pip? Does packaging them worth spending resources (disk space, Koji cycles) and packagers time?
See above. If they are required by something, it is necessary. Packaging leaf libraries as RPMs however indeed brings very little benefit. -- Miro Hrončok -- Phone: +420777974800 IRC: mhroncok _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
