Switch packaging to flit #103

Open maxfischer2781 opened 2 years ago

maxfischer2781 commented 2 years ago

flit v3.5 now supports namespace packages: https://github.com/takluyver/flit/issues/370

Version 3.5

You can now use Flit to distribute a module or package inside a namespace package (as defined by PEP 420). To do this, specify the import name of the concrete, inner module you are packaging - e.g. name = "sphinxcontrib.foo" - either in the [project] table, or under [tool.flit.module] if you want to use a different name on PyPI (PR #468).

Namespace packaging was the major reason why cobald was not packaged with flit back then. We should strongly investigate whether we can switch now.

This may need splitting up cobald into individual packages, instead of having a set of "default" packages living inside cobald. Which is probably a good idea anyway...
