  • [gentoo-user] how to motivate upstream to use PEP517?

    From Alessandro Barbieri@21:1/5 to All on Tue May 17 13:00:01 2022
    I've filed a bug to wsgi-intercept to switch to PEP517 and their answer
    was " The current build system works".
    How to motivate them?
    What's the real killer feature?
    Is something going to be deprecated soon that will force a switch?

    What's PEP517? What are you talking about? What's the problem?
