310- Comparison to .egg
311- ------------------
312-
313- #. Wheel is an installation format; egg is importable. Wheel archives
314- do not need to include .pyc and are less tied to a specific Python
315- version or implementation. Wheel can install (pure Python) packages
316- built with previous versions of Python so you don't always have to
317- wait for the packager to catch up.
318- #. Wheel uses .dist-info directories; egg uses .egg-info. Wheel is
319- compatible with the new world of Python packaging and the new
320- concepts it brings.
321- #. Wheel has a richer file naming convention for today's
322- multi-implementation world. A single wheel archive can indicate
323- its compatibility with a number of Python language versions and
324- implementations, ABIs, and system architectures. Historically the
325- ABI has been specific to a CPython release, wheel is ready for the
326- stable ABI.
327- #. Wheel is lossless. The first wheel implementation bdist_wheel
328- always generates egg-info, and then converts it to a .whl. It is
329- also possible to convert existing eggs and bdist_wininst
330- distributions.
331- #. Wheel is versioned. Every wheel file contains the version of the
332- wheel specification and the implementation that packaged it.
333- Hopefully the next migration can simply be to Wheel 2.0.
334- #. Wheel is a reference to the other Python.
