Subject: python-installer: allow flit_core 4.x as the build backend
X-Git-Url: http://git.99rst.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3caf694947323cba3e2ddbe90752188a2ed43ab6;p=openwrt-packages.git

python-installer: allow flit_core 4.x as the build backend

installer caps flit_core<4 in its build-system, so its /host build fails
with "Missing dependencies: flit_core<4" against flit-core 4.0.2. flit_core
4 builds it unchanged; relax the upper bound.

+Subject: [PATCH] python-installer: allow flit_core 4.x as the build backend
+
+installer caps its flit_core build requirement below 4, so python-installer/host fails
+with "Missing dependencies: flit_core<4" now that the feed ships flit-core
+4.0.2. flit_core 4 builds it unchanged; relax the upper bound.
