very strange distfile names

[meejah]

I updated the ticket (4173) as well, but this is because of a semi-recent "setuptools" change (in v69.3.0) which I guess finally implemented PEP 625 -- which references the "wheel" naming specification. This "normalizes" package names to make "-" into "_" (among some other changes).

So, overall it seems best to just accept this -- wheels are now named the same as tarballs, and we don't need to carry around custom re-naming code. Ideally this would have been noted better in the NEWS file for Tahoe-LAFS, but future releases will follow this naming scheme unless it causes undue hardship for downstream users of sdist files.

thanks,
