[Distutils] pip 19.0 is now available!
On behalf of the PyPA, I am pleased to announce that pip 19.0 has just been released. This release brings support for multiple new packaging standards. The highlights of this release are: - Python 3.4 support is deprecated. - PEP 517 support is now implemented. - manylinux2010 wheels are now supported. - Dependency links support has been removed. - Many bug fixes and lots of minor improvements. In addition, when run on Python 2.7, pip 19.0 prints a warning regarding the upcoming 2020 EOL of Python 2.7. A future version of pip will drop support for Python 2.7. To install pip 19.0, you can use get-pip (as described in [1]) or run:: python -m pip install --upgrade pip Note that if you are using a version of pip supplied by your distribution vendor, vendor-supplied upgrades will be available in due course. The pip development team is extremely grateful to everyone in the community for their contributions. Thanks to everyone who put so much effort into the new release. Many of the contributions came from community members, whether in the form of code, participation in design discussions and/or bug reports.

[Distutils] Re: Depending on external library
It's necessary to bundle the external library with the wheel. On linux, this is what the manylinux tag is all about (see PEP 513 & 571) and the auditwheel tool (https://github.com/pypa/auditwheel) will bundle the library into the wheel. On OS X and Windows, I'm less familiar with the toolchain but the same principle applies. -Robert On Tue, Jan 22, 2019 at 6:41 AM Jeroen Demeyer wrote: > Hello, > > I have a Python project that depends on an external C library (which is > unrelated to Python and NOT part of the OS). > > For an sdist, this is easy: my setup.py assumes that the library is > pre-installed somewhere on the system where setuptools can find it. > > However, is there a standard solution for packaging such a project as > wheel?

[Distutils] Depending on external library
Hello, I have a Python project that depends on an external C library (which is unrelated to Python and NOT part of the OS). For an sdist, this is easy: my setup.py assumes that the library is pre-installed somewhere on the system where setuptools can find it. However, is there a standard solution for packaging such a project as wheel? Ideally, the project should "just work" when doing pip install on it, which means that the external library should somehow be bundled in the wheel. I know that for example numpy does that, but it also has a very complicated build system (containing a fork of distutils!). Does anybody know any pointers for this? Or if you think that this is a minefield which is not really supported, feel free to say so.
