Most (90%+) of the libraries I work with don't depend on a Python version. But unfortunately when using easy_install/eggs they always have an explicit version, and multiple installations are necessary otherwise. Generally speaking, all pure-Python packages are version independent. At least on the source level. I suppose .pyc files aren't always (though they haven't changed for a long time, have they?) -- would it be reasonable to have version-independent packages? -- Ian Bicking / ianb@colorstudy.com / http://blog.ianbicking.org
