<li>Correctly remove prerelease suffixes from ~= check</li>
<li>Fix type hints for 'Version.post' and 'Version.dev'</li>
<li>Use typing alias 'UnparsedVersion'</li>
<li>Improve type inference</li>
<li>
<p>Tighten the return typeo</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Add Provides: for python*dist(packaging). (bsc#1186870)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>add no-legacyversion-warning.patch to restore compatibility with 20.4 </p>
</li>
<li>
<p>update to 20.9:</p>
</li>
<li>Add support for the <code>macosx_10_*_universal2</code> platform tags </li>
<li>
<p>Introduce <code>packaging.utils.parse_wheel_filename()</code> and <code>parse_sdist_filename()</code></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>update to 20.8:</p>
</li>
<li>Revert back to setuptools for compatibility purposes for some Linux distros</li>
<li>Do not insert an underscore in wheel tags when the interpreter version number is more than 2 digits </li>

</li>
<li>
<p>update to 20.4:</p>
</li>
<li>Canonicalize version before comparing specifiers.</li>
<li>Change type hint for <code>canonicalize_name</code> to return <code>packaging.utils.NormalizedName</code>.
This enables the use of static typing tools (like mypy) to detect mixing of normalized and un-normalized names.</li>
</ul>
