can you use a valid package name in the setup.py

[picca]

When I try to depende on pycbf with the egg name, I get this error message

I: pybuild base:232: python3.9 setup.py clean 
error in cctbx setup command: 'install_requires' must be a string or list of strings containing valid project/version requirement specifiers; Parse error at "'_pycbf'": Expected W:(abcd...)
E: pybuild pybuild:353: clean: plugin distutils failed with: exit code=1: python3.9 setup.py clean 

1. could you use pycbf instead of _pycbf
2. couls you switch to setuptool sinstead of distutils whcih will be remove in Python 3.12

Thanks for considering

Do you have some news about this issue ?

Now that 3.12 is out I will have difficulties to build pycbf on Debian

I am building the 0.9.7 version on Debian unstable. I also have a bunch of patches in the Debian package. do you think that some of them could be integrated directly in cbflib ? https://udd.debian.org/patches.cgi?src=cbflib&version=0.9.7%2Bdfsg1-2

Make yourself a fork of yayahjb/cbflib and add your mods and then tell me when you are ready for me to look at them. There are a lot of changes since 0.9.7 and it is long past time for a new release, dropping python2 support and updating python3 support. The big open issue is which hdf5 version to use as the default: 1.12 or 1.14. Comments appreciated. -- Herbert
