Were you trying to imply that work spent upgrading to Python 3 would have to be redone any day now when this hypothetical massively-incompatible Python 4 is released? Or what? What WERE you trying to say? If you don't understand how damaging it can be to say that sort of thing, **don't say it**. Otherwise, expect responses like this.

RE: Couldn't install numpy on Python 2.7
Chris, You seem to have perceived an insult that I remain unaware of. I have no special knowledge, like you do, of plans made for changes to the pthon language and implementation. I was asking a hypothetical question about what some users would do if python came out with a newer major version. I have seen people often wait until some software that tries to get updated too frequently makes multiple updates and then finally give in and skip the intermediates. I wondered if something like a version 4.0 might get people still using version 2 might finally come around and also if some version 3 users would not be thrilled with something not stable enough. I have no favorite ideas here and can see a balance between adding features or fixing flaws and on the other side, not discomfiting many and especially when in many cases, the original people who wrote software are no longer there nor budgets to pay for changes. I looked up FUD and sharply disagree with suggestions I am trying to somehow cause Fear, Uncertainty or Doubt. I simply asked if another such update ... as a hypothetical. Had I asked what impact Quantum Computers might have on existing languages, would that also be FUD, or just a speculation in a discussion. Either way, I am taking any further discussion along these lines offline and will not continue here. -Original Message- From: Python-list On Behalf Of Chris Angelico via Python-list Sent: Wednesday, June 12, 2024 7:23 PM To: python-list@python.org Subject: Re: Couldn't install numpy on Python 2.7 On Thu, 13 Jun 2024 at 09:20, wrote: > My point was that version 4 COULD HAPPEN one day and I meant INCOMPATIBLE > version not 4.

RE: Couldn't install numpy on Python 2.7
Chris, I don't want to get off message and debate whether my "jokes" are jokes, let alone funny. Obviously, they often aren't. What I meant by joking here does seem relevant. As the years pass, there can come a time when it is suggested that a language (any language including python) is no longer useful to many in the community as it has not kept up with changes in the industry or whatever. Suggestions are made for changes and additions that that not be backward compatible. They can be somewhat minor things like new keywords that have not been reserved and where programs that exist might be scanned for use of that keyword, and you simply replace those names with was_keyword or something and the programs will generally run. But there can be major changes too and there can be a choice to just create a new language that has some similarities to python 3 (or PERL version whatever) or just name it the same but a version higher much like has happened. My point was that version 4 COULD HAPPEN one day and I meant INCOMPATIBLE version not 4. Obviously we can make a version 4 that is not incompatible too. I have experience in other languages where disconnects happen at various levels. Some functions in a collection such as a package are removed perhaps to replace them with a more abstract version that does much more. Do you remove the old one immediately or do you make a new name for the new one and perhaps in some way mark the old one for deprecation with a pointer to the new one to be used as soon as reasonable? I have seen many approaches. I have seen entire packages yanked. I have seen parts that used to be in the distribution as if built-in and then taken out and vice versa. The point is you do not need a 4.0 to be incompatible. The incompatibility, or need to change, can happen anytime when you are importing things like numpy which is released whenever they want to and is not part of the python distribution. Also, as we have seen at times, other modules you may have imported, in some languages, can mask names you are using in your program that you may not even be aware are there. Much can go wrong with software and keeping current can also give you problems when something released may have inadvertent changes or bugs. So much of our code is voluntary and as noted earlier, some python variants/distributions simply may not have anyone interested in keeping them up to date. You as a user, take your chances. -Original Message- From: Python-list On Behalf Of Chris Angelico via Python-list Sent: Wednesday, June 12, 2024 5:52 PM To: python-list@python.org Subject: Re: Couldn't install numpy on Python 2.7 On Thu, 13 Jun 2024 at 07:36, wrote: > But if the goal was to deprecate python 2 and in some sense phase it out, it > is perhaps not working well for some.

You're exactly right - on Linux, it can use a newer SSL library from the OS. Of course, this does assume that you've updated your OS, which is far from a guarantee, but since this has security implications there's a good chance you can update it while retaining a legacy system.

Also a possibility; in my opinion, losing dependency management is too big a cost, so I would be inclined to set up a local server.

I would be surprised if pip on old Python can't install from current PyPI though. I imagine that something strange has happened like a new version of pip running on an old version of Python or old Python on new OS (or old PyCharm...). There is no problem using Python 2.7 with pip and PyPI on this Linux machine but I guess it has a newer SSL library provided by the OS: $ pip install numpy DEPRECATION: Python 2.7 reached the end of its life on January 1st, 2020. Please upgrade your Python as Python 2.7 is no longer maintained. pip 21.0 will drop support for Python 2.7 in January 2021. More details about Python 2 support in pip can be found at https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/development/release-process/#python-2-support pip 21.0 will remove support for this functionality.

I think it is; AIUI, with an ancient SSL library, pip is unable to download packages safely from the current pypi server. So if anyone actually does need to use pip with Python 2.7, they probably need to set up a local server, using older encryption protocols (which should therefore NOT be made accessible to the internet).

The OP has not replied with any explanation as to why they are using Python 2.7 and has not said whether they have any existing code that only works with Python 2.7. It is unclear at this point whether there is any reason that they shouldn't just install a newer version of Python. They are seeing a warning that explicitly says "You can upgrade to a newer version of Python to solve this". I don't know whether that SSL warning is directly connected to pip not finding any versions of numpy but with the available information so far that seems like the first thing to consider.

RE: Couldn't install numpy on Python 2.7
Chris, Since you misunderstood, my statement was that making an incompatible set of changes to create Python 3 in the first place was a decision made by some and perhaps not one that thrilled others who already had an embedded base of programs or ones in the pipeline that would need much work to become comparable. And, of course, users of a program who continued to use python 2, also have to find a way to ... But if the goal was to deprecate python 2 and in some sense phase it out, it is perhaps not working well for some. Frankly, issuing so many updates like 2.7 and including backporting of new features has helped make it possible to delay any upgrade. And, yes, I was KIDDING about python 4. I am simply suggesting that there may well be a time that another shift happens that may require another effort to get people on board a new and perhaps incompatible setup. I have seen things like that happen in multiple phases including phases where the new tools are not an upgrade, but brand new. An example might be if accompany decided to switch to another existing language because they want better error detection and faster execution or new features that may take forever to arrive in what they are using or that supply various services by humans to help them. The discussion though was about a specific OP asking if they can fix their problem. One solution being suggested is to fix a deeper problem and simply make their code work with a recent version of python 3. But another solution could be to step backward to a version of python 2 that still has numpy support, or as was suggested, find out what other modules they are using are interfering with the program being satisfied with the last version of numpy being used and perhaps find a way to get ...

If you don't need to ALSO use something newer, there's nothing stopping you from continuing with the old version. And that's fine! As long as you're okay with not getting updates, you're welcome to do whatever you like - including running Windows 98 on an ancient PC and editing your documents on that.

And there ARE solutions to that, although it's a bit rough trying to run them on low hardware (Wine works nicely for some programs, less so for others; VirtualBox is really not gonna be happy with a small fraction of your limited RAM). But if your needs are simple, even a crazily low-end system is sufficient. > It's amazing > how little resources Linux installs need, even with a GUI.

One of the big differences with Linux is that you have a choice of desktop environments, from "none" (just boot straight into a terminal) on up. Some of them are a bit of a compromise in terms of how well you can get your work done, but let's say you had an even MORE ancient system with maybe one gig of memory...

I support a Tomcat project that has some java code and most of the code is for Jython 2.7. Jython 2.7 is approximately on a par with Python 2.7. Any Python-only code from the standard library will probably run, but of course any C extensions cannot. The nice thing about using Jython in a java environment is that it can call any java object, and java code can call Jython objects and their methods. The project cannot move to a Python-3 compatible version because Jython 3.xx doesn't exist and may never exist. The saving grace is that my project doesn't have to use packages like numpy, scipy, and so forth. Also, the project is very mature and almost certainly won't need to create functionality such packages would enable.

RE: Couldn't install numpy on Python 2.7
Change is hard even when it may be necessary. The argument often is about whether some things are necessary or not. Python made a decision but clearly not a unanimous one. My current PC was not upgradable because of the new hardware requirement Microsoft decided was needed for Windows 11. I bought a new one a while back and turned it on in another room and then set it aside because replacing the current one in the current position will be a pain, especially with getting all my wires and so on, and since I do not want to use a full copy of my data including many obsolete things, that will be another pain to get what I need, if I can remember. Complicating issues also include licenses for things in fixed amounts and the likelihood of messing up the hardware/software I have that records shows from cable to my hard disk, possibly needing to buy a new one. I mention this in the context of examples of why even people who are fairly knowledgeable do not feel much need to fix what does not feel broken. I have wondered if instead of doing what Microsoft wants, if maybe switching to Linux of some kinds makes as much sense. I suspect some may simply upgrade to an Apple product. And think of all the PC's that may effectively be discarded as they may not even be usable if donated. We live in a rapidly developing age and hence one with regularly and irregularly scheduled rounds of obsolescence.
