#egg=my-package==1.2 does not extract specs

[stefanfoulis]

For cases where the #egg tag also includes the version, the version is not split from the name correctly.

http://my-server.com/packages/my-package-1.2.tar.gz#egg=my-package==1.2 results:

• requirement.name: my-package==1.2
• requirement.specs: []

Shouldn't it be like this?:

• requirement.name: my-package
• requirement.specs: [('==', '1.2')]

This is probably also the case for VCS and LOCAL.

Are those valid #egg specifiers? I don't see any examples like that in the pip docs.

Given PyPi has noted Egg distribution upload is deprecated as of 26 June 2023, I'm going to close this as no longer relevant.

Please re-open if you disagree @stefanfoulis.
