Version independence always means version independence in the same major line 
of development (i.e. X number in X.Y.Z), or to put it another way, version 
independence among the versions listed as supported in the Trove classifiers.

Of course.  As much as possible should be done by build_scripts, and what’s 
installation-specific is left to install_scripts.

Fred: Thanks for the pointer!
