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In 2011, the primus project was merged into setuptools, and primus is no longer maintained or supported.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.
