| Downloader's shared libraries | ||
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ | ||
| .. deprecated:: 3.2.0 | ||
| Shared libraries have been deprecated in favor of pip-installable libraries. | ||
| Shared libraries do not provide any functionality that can't already be achieved | ||
| with pip requirements *and* as such don't provide much value in return for | ||
| the added complexity. | ||
| Known issues, especially those related to hot-reload, were not handled automatically | ||
| for shared libraries, same as they are not handled for the libraries installed | ||
| through pip. |
