propagatedBuildInputs v.s. buildInputs, in the context of a Python package

[Klaas van Schelven]

Hello all,

I think I have an understanding of propagatedBuildInputs v.s. buildInputs in the context of Python packages, but I would like to have it confirmed

My understanding is that any runtime dependency of a package should go in propagatedBuildInputs, and any test/build time dependency should be in buildInputs.

Is this correct?

Hi,

In the case of Python packages you are correct:

• `propagatedBuildInputs` is for run-time dependencies
• `buildInputs` is for build-time dependencies
  
• `checkInputs` is for test dependencies (16.09+)
