Primus email setuptools
A blast from the past!
primus
was a Python package that was used to install Python packages from source, similar to setuptools
. However, primus
was designed to be a more lightweight and flexible alternative to setuptools
.
In 2011, the primus
project was merged into setuptools
, and primus
is no longer maintained or supported. As a result, it's not recommended to use primus
for new projects.
If you're looking for a way to install Python packages from source, you can use setuptools
instead. Here's an example of how to use setuptools
to install a package from source:
python setup.py install
This will install the package and its dependencies from the source code in the setup.py
file.
Alternatively, you can use pip
to install packages from source. For example:
pip install --no-binary :all: package_name
This will install the package and its dependencies from the source code, without using any pre-built binaries.
