User:Rombobeorn/PyPI URL format

Python Packages (pypi)

As Pypi has moved to storing files in directories which change depending on the file being stored, it is rather unpleasant to use in a Source: URL. Instead, files.pythonhosted.org can be used as follows, where <name> is the project's name on Pypi and <first_letter> is the first letter in that name. (See also the sample python spec here).

Source0: https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/source/<first_letter>/<name>/<name>-%{version}.tar.gz
