License file in pypi archive about pyeasyarchive HOT 3 CLOSED

Is there any reason that you can't use the release-archives on the actual release-page on Github (https://github.com/dsoprea/PyEasyArchive/releases)? Those are the official distributables.

Although we can use the github releases, we have scripts that monitor pypi packages for updates, which is harder on github, so using pypi packages is better when they are available.

But overall, the python packaging guidelines say that pypi packages should have license files for legal reasons:

Every package should include a license file detailing the terms of distribution. In many jurisdictions, packages without an explicit license can not be legally used or distributed by anyone other than the copyright holder.

Thank you for sharing that. I wasn't aware.

I added it yesterday. I just wanted to understand.

Thank you.
