Please unbundle apipkg #31

Closed pytestbot closed 7 years ago

pytestbot commented 8 years ago

As far as I can see, py/_apipkg.py in pylib 1.4.14 is identical to apipkg.py version 1.2. Would it be possible to unbundle it?

Background: Fedora has a policy that forbids bundling of libraries in its packages: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:No_Bundled_Libraries

The related Fedora bug against python-py is https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=790163

Original comment by @hpk42

Unbundling apipkg from py might be an option. Originally, it was "py" which contained apipkg functionality, though, and the separate release of "apipkg" was experimental. Rather than unbundling, it's more likely i just drop "apipkg" as a separate project or make it depend on py, rather than the other way round.

@thmo closing this one after #130 was merged - you can un-vendor before installation using the task or a simple rm action
