Describe Your Problem

This project publishes wheel-s for Python 3.10, 3.9, ... for Linux x86_64. This project publishes wheel-s for Python 3.11 for MacOS and Windows. How can I help publication of the wheel for 3.11 for Linux x86_64?

[vEpiphyte]

@jnwatson It appears the project is missing a build directive for a python 3.11 wheel here https://github.com/jnwatson/py-lmdb/blob/master/.github/workflows/python-package.yml#L159

[claird-ot]

Will a pull request from us help resolve publication of the wheel for 3.11, @jnwatson?

[jnwatson]

No need. @vEpiphyte pointed out the issue.

[jnwatson]

Well, I spoke too soon. It looks like we have an upstream CI problem: RalfG/python-wheels-manylinux-build#63. I'm blocked on that.

[claird-ot]

I don't like lmdb's 3.11-less-ness, Nic. I do appreciate the updates, though. Thanks for keeping us current, and let us know what helps you.

[jnwatson]

Well, you can still use 3.11, you just have to build from source.

[jnwatson]

Looks like the RalfG manylinux CI module isn't being maintained. Seems like the new hotness is https://github.com/pypa/cibuildwheel.

I'll give it a couple days. If no movement, I'll have to port to the new system. PRs definitely welcome.

[claird-ot]

"... you just have to build from source": absolutely true, and worth repeating.

I repeat: thanks, Nic, for the updates.

[jnwatson]

On a third look, I found the problem.

[jnwatson]

Fixed in #339 and merged to master.

[claird]

I appreciate the progress, Nic.

This does not appear completed to me, in the sense that the project file still shows that the only 3.11 Linux wheel is for ARM, not x86.

[vEpiphyte]

I believe a v1.4.1 tag would kick the build machines for everything?

[jnwatson]

That's correct.
