[00:53:08] <KingInTheNorth> http://pastebin.com/MkmbCJeW error message

[12:48:23] <ronny_> hi

[12:48:50] <ronny_> whats the current state on using something like setup.cfg instead of setup.py?

[12:49:48] <dstufft> ronny_: setup.py is what is used and will be until PEP 426 is completed

[12:50:26] <agronholm> ronny_: but you can do things with setup.cfg you can't with setup.py

[12:50:27] <dstufft> well even after that really

[12:50:44] <ronny_> dstufft: and whats the state of art wrt having a minimal 1-line setup.py + a reasonable confirming setup.cfg

[12:51:17] <dstufft> upstream packaging isn't going to be using a setup.cfg, it's a bad format.

[12:51:23] <dstufft> pbr lets you do something like what you want though

[12:51:30] <dstufft> 4 line setup.py + setjup.cfg

[12:51:54] <ronny_> dstufft: is there any mechanism to get the version information from scm tags intended?

[12:52:10] <dstufft> ronny_: pbr has that as well yes

[12:52:16] <dstufft> assuming you use git

[12:52:33] <dstufft> the python tooling isn't focusing on package author tooling

[12:52:47] <dstufft> PEP 426 defines what a package looks like, with a static JSON file

[12:52:57] <dstufft> and how that gets created we don't care

[12:53:05] <dstufft> certainly setuptools/setup.py will be one way

[12:53:10] <ronny_> does pbr have a an entryppoint to add other scms?

[12:53:17] <ronny_> currently im using setup.py + hgdistver

[12:53:19] <dstufft> ronny_: don't think so

[12:53:30] <ronny_> hmm, meh, then its a pain

[12:53:40] <ronny_> i use hg for all my packages

[12:55:24] <calston> packaging is a pain? never

[12:59:10] <ronny> dstufft: who is responsible for pbr?

[12:59:18] <dstufft> openstack

[13:03:33] <ronny> hmm, i see

[16:28:34] <ionelmc> was there some tool to pull pypi stats for all your packages?

[17:13:18] <tos9> ionelmc: vanity IIRC

[19:56:44] <azyr> can i somehow ask pip what kind of extras does some package have? by extras i mean something like "ipython[notebook]"
