Comment 1 for bug 1991606

Hi there, thanks for the report.

Debian and Ubuntu have a long-established package versioning scheme, so I'm not sure it's appropriate to expect those packages to change to conform to what PEP440 wants. But we may be able to do something within the building tools, such as your poetry example, in terms of how it reports distro package versions.

I'm not previously familiar with the python3-poetry package. Would you provide a set of steps to produce this problem using that? I see that one can do a "poetry new poetry-demo", which may assist in constructing a minimal test case.

Also, are there other affected python building tools?
