Change log for ``distlib``
--------------------------
0.3.5 (future)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Released: Not yet.
0.3.4
~~~~~
Released: 2021-12-08
- database
- Fixed #153: Raise warnings in get_distributions() if bad metadata seen, but keep
going.
- markers
- Fixed #154: Determine Python versions correctly for Python >= 3.10.
- scripts
- Updated launcher executables.
Code relating to support for Python 2.6 was also removed.
0.3.3
~~~~~
Released: 2021-09-22
- compat
- Fixed #152: Removed splituser() function which wasn't used and is deprecated.
- markers
- Fixed #149: Handle version comparisons correctly in environment markers.
- scripts
- Add ARM-64 launchers and support code to use them. Thanks to Niyas Sait and
Adrian Vladu for their contributions.
- util
- Fixed #148: Handle a single trailing comma following a version. Thanks to Blazej
Floch for the report and suggested fix.
- version
- Fixed #150: Fix incorrect handling of epochs.
- wheel
- Reverted handling of tags for Python >= 3.10 (use 310 rather than 3_10). This is
because PEP 641 was rejected.
- tests
- Made changes relating to implementing CI using GitHub Actions.
0.3.2
~~~~~
Released: 2021-05-29
- locators
- Fixed #141: removed unused regular expression.
- metadata
- Fixed #140: allowed "Obsoletes" in more scenarios, to better handle faulty
metadata already on PyPI.
- resources
- Fixed #146: added entry for SourcelessFileLoader to the finder registry.
- scripts
- Made the generation of scripts more configurable:
- the ``variant_separator`` attribute can be set to determine the separator used
between a script basename and its X.Y variant. The default value is ``'-'``
and would result in a final script basename like ``'foo-X.Y'``, whereas
setting it to ``''`` would result in a final script basename like
``'fooX.Y'``.
- You can also subclass and override the ``get_script_filenames()`` method to
provide a more customised set of file basenames.
- util
- Fixed #140: allowed a trailing comma in constraints, to better handle faulty
metadata already on PyPI.
- Moved get_platform() logic from distutils to here.
- Fixed #143: removed normcase() to avoid some problems on Windows.
- wheel
- Dropped any trailing data when computing the Python tag.
- Added support for manylinux tags.
- Changed handling of tags for Python >= 3.10 (use 3_10 rather than 310).
- Fixed #147: permission bits are now preserved on POSIX when installing from a
wheel.
- tests
- Fixed #139: improved handling of errors related to the test PyPI server.
0.3.1

incorrectly computed as a list of bytes, rather than a list of str. This

dictionary before trying "algo_digest" keys. Thanks to Jeffery To for the
patch.

containing non-ASCII characters. The updated launchers now also support
relative paths (see http://bit.ly/2JxmOoi for more information).

``options`` dictionary.
