[11:09:12] <salty-horse> hi. the maintainers of mysqlclient uploaded two versions: 1.4.2 with a tarball, and 1.4.2.post1 with two wheels built specifically for windows. any attempt to install "the latest version" (which pip and pipenv do automatically when the version isn't specified) fail on non-windows platforms. Is it accurate to say that they shouldn't do that, or am I missing something?
[11:16:21] <toad_polo> salty-horse: It's up to the maintainers what platform to publish wheels for.
[11:17:00] <toad_polo> You may want to open an issue on their tracker asking them to at least release a source distribution.
[11:20:25] <salty-horse> toad_polo, that's not quite what I'm asking, and my description was wrong. it seems to be only an issue with pipenv, which insists on trying to install 1.4.2.post1 when 1.4.2 will do. will switch to the correct channel :)
