Current evaluation
Snapcraft's PyPI package is stuck at 4.8.1 (June 2021) while fixes like #4145 only landed in source; reporter asks to resume publishing or archive the PyPI project. Maintainer mr-cal acknowledged and is archiving it.
Suggested action: keep open
Reason: Maintainer mr-cal responded on 2026-09-30 with "I wasn't actually aware we still had a pypi package for Snapcraft. I'll work on getting this archived and update the pypi description," so the report is triaged, valid, and has an owner intent — it should stay open until the archive/description change actually lands. Impact is limited to confusing pip users (as the reporter did, landing on the stale 4.8.1 and hitting #4145) rather than breaking Snapcraft itself, and the chosen remedy (archiving the PyPI project) is a trivial metadata change; complexity is only higher if maintainers instead opt to restore publishing. Note: repo code search was unavailable in this round (pinned-SHA lookup errored), so I could not independently confirm the current publishing workflow state, which caps confidence slightly.
