Right now the best you can do is make a note of it. Pep 426 let's you do what you want. Thanks. What specifically in PEP 426 do you mean; how would I make a note of “this package is end-of-life as is, please migrate to ‘flufl.enum’ instead” using PEP 426 metadata? http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0426/#obsoleted-by Note PEP426 isn't completed and isn't implemented :)

That specific bit is stable, though :)

Cheers, Nick.
