I've recently released version 0.3.1 of distlib on PyPI [1]. For newcomers,
distlib is a library of packaging functionality which is intended to be
usable as the basis for third-party packaging tools.
The main changes in this release are as follows:
* Fixed #132: Added documentation to help with relative interpreter paths. Thanks
to Paul Kienzle for the patch.
* Fixed #134: Allowed specifying a different target Python version when generating
scripts.
* Fixed #135: Exposed the ``enquote_executable`` function previously implemented
as an internal function.
* Addressed #138: Improved metadata support for newer metadata versions. Thanks to
James Tocknell for the patch.
* Changed the output of flags in entry point definitions in wheels. Thanks to
frostming (明希) for the patch.
* Stopped writing JSON metadata. Only old-style metadata is written now.
A more detailed change log is available at [2].
