move away from flit #4

Open ddkohler opened 2 years ago

ddkohler commented 2 years ago

@untzag :

I believe we must move away from flit and use setuptools instead. Flit does not support data files [1] which means we will never be able to distribute .desktop and .bat files and place them in the appropriate place for the operating system to use. [1] https://github.com/pypa/flit/issues/358

@kameyer226

Have you looked at Yarn?

kameyer226 commented 2 years ago

No, I only heard of it, and I may have tried something with it a while back but not enough for a real look.

ksunden commented 2 years ago

to be clear, @kameyer226, dan was transferring over your own comment there, not asking you the question... that said, yarn is not relevant here, that is a package manager for javascript, not python.

kameyer226 commented 2 years ago

I wonder if there is an actual term for that kind of a mea culpa
