Version available on PyPI is more recent than the one here

(issue was first open in vesln/robber.py https://github.com/vesln/robber.py/issues/20)

I'm packaging robber.py for Guix (https://guix.gnu.org) and I noticed that there was a discrepancy between the robber package on PyPI and the repo provided as a homepage.

Would you be kind enough to help me sort it out? It would be great to merge back all the "latest" changes from vesln/robber.py into EastAgile/robber.py, release a new version, git-tag it and publish it to PyPI with an updated homepage.

Does that seem reasonable to you? Let me know if I can make myself useful!

@tlc28 Sorry for the late response. The version on Pypi is latest, you can use that. vesln/robber.py is not maintained anymore so it is behind our repo for many commits. We do not have the admin privileges to change the information on the Pypi page. We will try to contact the original author for that.

Hi @catriuspham, thanks for your answer!

This is what I had been happily doing for years! :-)

Great, thanks! This would be great to have the PyPI point to the actual Github. Also it would make sense to have the latest package on PyPI match a tag in this repo. I would say that the easiest thing to do would be:

• tag you latest version as 1.2 (or 2.0 if there are some API changes, anyway, it has to be > 1.1.5);
• reclaim the PyPI robber as your project (if the original author does not mind/does answer);
• update the PyPI homepage to your repo URL;
• publish your version with the above tag on PyPI.

Best regards
