[15:53:08] <zbr> any reasons for not using setuptools-scm?

[17:46:40] <toad_polo> zbr: Is that a general question?

[17:47:18] <toad_polo> There are trade-offs involved, yes, but it mostly works.

[17:56:04] <ngoldbaum> the extra build-time dependency might give you some caution, but if anyone is going to use `setup_requires` properly it's the setuptools maintainers...

[17:56:37] <ngoldbaum> not a concern if you're using pyproject.toml though

[18:07:14] <toad_polo> Well, setuptools_scm is not maintained by the setuptools maintainers.

[18:07:14] <toad_polo> And if you're not using pyproject.toml then setup_requires is pretty dicey.

[18:08:27] <ngoldbaum> which is... not a good idea

[18:23:00] <zbr> toad_polo: asking because I am happy user of it, on several projects.

[18:24:43] <zbr> i do have both toml/setup.py for compatibility reasons, like https://github.com/ansible-community/molecule/blob/master/setup.py

[18:25:16] <zbr> i used to use pbr in the past
