Message 210720 - Python tracker
Donald also pointed out that we want the fix to make pip complain if it is passed a wheel 2.0+ file (it's currently missing the version number warnings/errors that are called for in PEP 427). That isn't merged yet upstream, but will be part of 0.15.3. I interpreted Larry's comments on IRC as in-principle approval, so passing this to Donald to resolve (3.4rc2 is scheduled for February 23rd).
