Betreff: [Zope-dev] zope.viewlet 3.4.1 release broken
Hi,
the release of zope.viewlet 3.4.1 on pypi is missing the data files (like .txt and .zcml), hence it is unusable. Also the date in the CHANGES is wrong (2007 should be 2008)
No it doesn't miss the data. Your linux is just not able to extract them. It works on windows box.
Interesting. So still the package would be broken for most users. I'm using Mac OS btw.
Yes, I guess it's broken on mac too. And I asked Stephan one hour after this happens to re-release them. Fixed eggs are on the way. But note if you need a stable version it's a bad idea to depend on new eggs. You will not get into trouble if you use a KGS. That's what the KGS is for. Broken eggs can happen like any other thing in development. Released eggs are never stable by default. I told that since we started with the buildout and egg concept. Because the egg build and distribution trak misses a test or stagging concept.
Roger, it is good that you do releases, but could to please take take of making them proper?
Probably you know already. That's a (linux) bug in the python tar library. I did nothing wrong. It's just broken if you extract the files from the egg. on linux. Everything is build correct.
Could you clearify why the package I built works then? That's the great mystery I suppose ;)
I have no idea what you did? Can you explain who you built the egg? Then I can tell you what what's the difference between what I and what you did.
