Never mind the "Obsoletes" information - even the more useful "Requires-Dist" information is not exposed via PyPI, even though it appears to be stored in the database. (Or if it is, please point me to where - I must have missed it.) Even if this were to be made available, it's presumably obtained from PKG-INFO. As I understand, this data is not considered reliable - for example, pip runs egg_info on downloaded packages to get updated information when determining dependencies to be downloaded. If the Requires-Dist info in PKG-INFO can't be relied on, surely less critical information such as Obsoletes can't be relied on, either? Regards, Vinay Sajip
