Drop distributed as a required dependency?

weiji14 opened this issue · 2 comments

Continuing discussion from conda-forge/dask-geopandas-feedstock#15 (comment) on whether distributed should be a required dependency of dask-geopandas. Currently it is listed as required in setup.py at https://github.com/geopandas/dask-geopandas/blame/2d0abad32e324a494b34738ab70feb6d78cc0942/setup.py#L16

Looking at the git history, it seems like distributed has been listed as required since 2020 - 7a49aef.

Yeah, we can drop it. It is not used directly anywhere.
