I was just wondering how can I manage this separation in the setup.py

Currently I list psycopg2>=2.7.3.

Shall I follow the pattern and create two different source packages or do
you recommend a different approach?

If binary packages work as expected you may just use that as a dependency,
so "psycopg2-binary>=2.7.3" should do.

But now it occurs to me that the choice of not releasing a source package
under psycopg2-binary was probably wrong: if you update your requirements
as above, installation would fail if the user has an old pip version, or a
non glibc architecture (e.g. Linux Alpine).

I'll create the missing package tomorrow morning. Once done, if your app is
not a multithread program also using the system ssh, depending on binary is
enough, I don't see reason for two packages.
