Build error due to use of `license_file`

Closed this issue · 1 comments

setuptools 67.7.0 and higher now (as of Oct 2023...) error over license_file in setup.cfg

pypa/setuptools@73b5c62#diff-be02e6c16d3b55547f6432c4130b888a086dca03cbea525aa314b3de6b4f69daL576

which is used in

cffi/setup.cfg

Lines 2 to 3 in 38bd6be

license_file = LICENSE
license_files = LICENSE

so you cannot build any tagged version of cffi.

Hm, no, it seems to remain an error, I'm hitting a different issue.
