• [Python-announce] ANN: distlib 0.3.3 released on PyPI

    From Vinay Sajip@21:1/5 to All on Wed Sep 22 08:10:53 2021
    I've recently released version 0.3.3 of distlib on PyPI [1]. For newcomers, distlib is a library of packaging functionality which is intended to be
    usable as the basis for third-party packaging tools.

    The main changes in this release are as follows:

    * Fixed #152: Removed splituser() function which wasn't used and is deprecated.

    * Fixed #149: Handle version comparisons correctly in environment markers.

    * Add ARM-64 launchers and support code to use them. Thanks to Niyas Sait and   Adrian Vladu for their contributions.

    * Fixed #148: Handle a single trailing comma following a version. Thanks to Blazej
      Floch for the report and suggested fix.

    * Fixed #150: Fix incorrect handling of epochs.

    * Reverted handling of tags for Python >= 3.10 (use 310 rather than 3_10). This is
      because PEP 641 was rejected.

    * Added a GitHub Actions workflow to perform tests.

    A more detailed change log is available at [2].

    Please try it out, and if you find any problems or have any suggestions for improvements,
    please give some feedback using the issue tracker! [3]
