• [Python-announce] ANN: distlib 0.3.4 released on PyPI

    From Vinay Sajip@21:1/5 to All on Wed Dec 8 17:43:21 2021
    I've recently released version 0.3.4 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 #153: Raise warnings in get_distributions() if bad metadata seen, but keep
      going.

    * Fixed #154: Determine Python versions correctly for Python >= 3.10.

    * Updated launcher executables with changes to handle duplication logic.

    Code relating to support for Python 2.6 was also removed (support for Python 2.6 was
    dropped in an earlier release, but supporting code wasn't removed until now).

    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]

    Regards,

    Vinay Sajip
