Thanks for being patient (and the patch).

allmydata-tahoe 1.10.1 is scheduled to be released soon (couple of
weeks at most).  Compared to 1.10 this version will have more (direct
or indirect) dependencies and the adaptation of that code to PEP 440
is best documented at
https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/2354

According to the Slackware64 buildbot it's all fine, wrt PEP 440:

I plan to check all deps for updates and run tests this weekend.
