I have tried to look for an answer to this online, but I can't seem to find it so here I go: Why are there no python 3.6 wheels for numpy, python-opencv, matplotlib, etc.? I feel like I am missing something obvious, but I just can't seem to find the answer anywhere. Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask. |
It's mentioned on the homepage that we provide wheels for Jessie/Stretch/Buster and this is covered in the FAQs but I could add more detail about versions we don't build for. Here's what it says:
Each Debian release comes with a specific Python version, shown above. We build wheels using the system Python in each of these Debian versions. There is no Debian release with Python 3.6, so we don't build 3.6 wheels. Buster is the latest stable Debian release, and it comes with Python 3.7. We won't build for any further Python versions until the next stable Debian release is available. It's possible to build other Python versions from source, so why don't we do this and build wheels for every Python version? Two reasons:
Hope that helps. Will aim to write a concise version of this up for the FAQs. |
Are there plans to move to Python 3.8 or even 3.9 for Buster? There is currently a problem with asyncio (CookieError) for Python versions < 3.8 (see: freqtrade/freqtrade#4356, or https://github.com/encode/starlette/blob/99b37781eb88cfc2f7064724975ac5d93d623ea7/starlette/responses.py#L17-L18) |
No - we only build for system Python versions - but Bullseye comes out this summer with 3.9. See my previous comment as to why. |
Cool! |
Oh, i found this issue entry now, after creating Include piwheels into lock file #260 ... Don't know it it's a entry for FAQ?!? |
Got a question about piwheels? Ask it here and we'll consider adding it (and the answer) to the FAQs.
