Obsolete libgpiod package on PyPI #69

Closed warthog618 closed 6 days ago

warthog618 commented 6 months ago

There is an old libgpiod package on PyPI, currently at 2.0.1, which is confusing since the official package name is now gpiod and is at 2.1.3. Can the old package be removed, or redirected either explicitly or via an updated README to gpiod?

brgl commented 6 months ago

I removed it a bit too hastily. Turns out the nanbield branch of yocto still uses it. I cannot undo it either. I need to patch meta-openembedded now. :(

brgl commented 6 months ago

Hmm, so surprisingly yocto still works because the package is still available[1]. I'm not sure how persistent this link is though.

Not sure where you are at with the yocto build, but it is gone from PyPI, so I'm satisfied this issue is resolved.

All is good: kirkstone is still on libgpiod v1.6.x and the oldest still supported release scarthgap pulls the "correct" gpiod package from pypi.
