localizer-py → localizer

Localizer's Python runtime is published on PyPI as localizer. localizer-py was the name of its first release, when localizer still belonged to an unrelated project; that project's author handed the name over.

This distribution contains no code. It depends on localizer, so pip install localizer-py keeps working and installs the real package. Switch your dependency to localizer when convenient; the import name has always been localizer.

Upgrading from localizer-py 0.5.0

Release 0.5.0 of localizer-py contained the localizer package itself. pip install -U localizer-py installs localizer and then uninstalls 0.5.0, whose file list covers the files just installed, so pip can remove them and leave import localizer broken. Upgrade in two steps instead:

pip uninstall -y localizer-py && pip install localizer

If the package is already broken, pip install --force-reinstall --no-deps localizer puts the files back.
