Bug 533256 – dev-python/ssl-fetch-0.2.1 should not set `Git' as package version

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Craig Andrews 2014-12-22 07:08:10 UTC]

After installing dev-python/ssl-fetch-0.2.1, run:
$ pip show ssl-fetch | grep Version

You get:
Version: Git

You should get:
Version: 0.2.1

Python packages should set their version numbers but ssl-fetch does not. The issue has been reported upstream at https://github.com/dol-sen/ssl-fetch/issues/6 but Gentoo should probably fix this in the mean time with a simple patch (the fix is to change the version number in __init__.py from "Git" to "0.2.1").

Besides being just bad form, this problem causes Python to raise a warning any time this library is used. For example, when one runs flexget, this warning is displayed:
/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources.py:2443: PEP440Warning: 'ssl-fetch (Git)' is being parsed as a legacy, non PEP 440, version. You may find odd behavior and sort order. In particular it will be sorted as less than 0.0. It is recommend to migrate to PEP 440 compatible versions.
  PEP440Warning,

Reproducible: Always
