pushing v5.1.0 to pip
Opened this issue · 6 comments
Hi,
Sorry to intrude with a naïve question. When installing configobj, the latest version is 5.0.6. This version doesn't support validate and I can't install validate either in python 3.7 making the combo configobj==5.0.6+validate incompatible with python 3.7
Is it possible to push 5.1.0 of configobj to pip? This version would basically solve this issue. I wonder if this version is still in beta or not.
Sorry to nag here about this, but some distros are begging to package a patched 5.0.6, and this is creating breakage in downstream apps.
The latest stable release is simply too old.
Would you mind pushing a 5.1.0 based on the current master? Or at least maybe a 5.1.0b1?
👍
@jhermann I believe you have the relevant permissions to push to pypi?
I think this is basically the same sentiment as #213 which now holds the most recent discussion where I lay out that I'm going to put at one last maintenance release (5.1.0) before making it explicit that the project needs a full-time maintainer to take it to the next phase
in reading this a bit more, I think the more fundamental point is that there are people who depended on validate as a separate artifact and I need to understand that a bit more
