-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/PythonEggs This is the third round of the Python Egg Draft. It contains changes proposed at today's packaging meeting. # Sep 11, 2007 -- Add note that all eggs must be rebuilt from source. * Add summary of egg on-disk formats. * Revise where this information will be placed in the Guidelines. o Make most of it its own page o Add a short checklist of Must/Shoulds to go on Packaging/Python. And from slightly before the meeting: * Make the switch for eggs within distutils be F9 instead of F8 after talking with Jeremy. o Add some mailing list discussions to the links section. o Add a sample README.fedora file. I think I got everything except virtual Provides and virtual Requires. I'd like to make that a separate change to be discussed after we make sure we'll switch distutils egg generation on for F9. My reasoning is this: * Currently python doesn't have virtual provide symbols like perl or php do. * If we turn on egg generation in distutils, practically every python module is going to have egg-info. So if we start now with two separate namespaces python-egg(MODULE) and python(MODULE), by F-9 we could have everything using python-egg(MODULE) and next to nothing using python(). There are some little wrinkles in this and it may also be affected by Panu's work on a python-dependency-extractor for rpm. I'll send out a message on this shortly. - -Toshio -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFG5xeXX6yAic2E7kgRAmEgAJ0R8LghRVkxT7vW0GZEtqsxU68uCwCeJaTD Mpvw4V80emv4avD2+qbwnyM= =Tg9k -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
