Is our version schema correct (for pip)? #110

fangpenlin commented 10 years ago

I just tried to install it with

pip install "balanced<1.0"

But what I got looks like this

Downloading/unpacking balanced<1.0
  Downloading balanced-1.beta3.tar.gz
  Running setup.py egg_info for package balanced

I am pretty familiar with how pip handles version number, maybe we can figure it out, see is this our problem or that's a bug of pip or something else.

iirc when we talked about this last, a 1.0beta is technically less than 1.0, which in turns leads to this strange behaviour with <1.0

mjallday commented 10 years ago

makes sense but i think we should un-publish the beta version since it seems like undesired behavior. if i hear no dissent i will do this today.

remear commented 10 years ago

+1 to remove the beta version

mjallday commented 10 years ago

OK, it has been removed from pypi.
