It provides wheels for macOS (Intel and ARM), Linux (x86_64, ARM, PowerPC, s390x), and Windows, making it convenient for local development, testing, and CI/CD environments where you need etcd without system-level package management.\n\nThe package has no runtime dependencies\u2014it simply wraps etcd binaries and makes them available to your Python environment. However, the project has been abandoned since late 2021, with no updates to the bundled etcd version or compatibility fixes for newer Python releases.","worth_installing":"No. The package is abandoned (last update 2021-12-21, over 1746 days ago) and bundles etcd 3.5.1, which may have unpatched security issues or compatibility problems with modern systems. For new projects, use containerized etcd or install etcd through your system package manager. Only consider this if you have a legacy project already depending on it."},"id":"etcd-distro","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/etcd-distro","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/etcd-distro.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/etcd-distro/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2021-11-02","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"etcd-distro","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Python distribution for etcd, a key-value store, to make the installation easier on various platforms"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":103409,"position":12805,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"3.5.1"}
