@jaraco Do you know what, if anything, is the replacement for these? When adding deprecation warnings, I think it's usually best to tell people where to go to get the same functionality, and these deprecation warnings are not helpful in that regard.

I don't know the best replacement. Doing a quick search, I see zipapp seems to implement something very similar. I haven't personally spent much time creating these apps nor have I seen them in the wild, so I can't speak to the use cases. |

Any updates on this one? |

Thanks for the ping. I can't imagine belaboring this issue any longer. I agree it would be nice to provide a replacement, but one of the goals of the PyPA has been to simplify the tool chains and limit the supported use-cases, and I think this is one of those cases, so there is no recommended replacement, at least from PyPA. |
Agreed. Assuming we give a sufficiently long deprecation period, there's always the opportunity to update the warning message if this niche in the ecosystem really needs to be filled. |
Closes: #1557
