> Sometimes, PyPI versions lag behind upstream versions. Hi Bonz,
Yes, in my experience that has sometimes been the case because maintainers don't make timely releases to PyPI. > What's the policy on this. Shouldn't we prefer upstream over PyPI? Our importer works with the JSON API that PyPI provides at https://pypi.org/pypi/baz/json See here: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/guix/import/pypi.scm?h=master#n141 That API provides a lot of package data that GitHub does not track in a unified and structured way. > Adding extra glue can add unnecessary complexity. You're right. I thought about that after I sent the email with the idea ;() Doing my best to make inboxes a happier place, jgart
