incredible find just now from when i was young and innocent and TLS errors meant nothing to me https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/7619
context: centos6 is the docker image that defines the manylinux2010 standard which is the only way you can upload linux wheels to pypi. pypi of course can only reject PEPs, never accept them.
This PEP proposes the creation of a manylinux2014 platform tag to succeed the manylinux2010 tag introduced by PEP 513. It also proposes that PyPI and pip both be updated to support uploading, downloading, and installing manylinux2014 distributions on co...
@leo why is is called manylinux2014 when it was proposed in 2019? it is a mystery
Package authors should not upload non-compliant manylinux2014 wheels to PyPI, and should be aware that PyPI may begin blocking non-compliant wheels from being uploaded.
we created this complete fiction of a problem and you need to use this exact root fs to be allowed into our gated community
@leo one of the two people very much in charge of how linux is allowed to interface with the python community https://mail.python.org/archives/list/[email protected]/message/TKJA5VHQLNYOF5RD6EZVI4TBPRJWQRQU/
or a whole bunch of other super
arcane traps that we've discovered over time (e.g. the Python used for
the build has to be linked using the correct configure options)
@leo this guy is also in charge of explaining why pypi can't do anything useful
All the complicated bit is in the docker image/auditwheel. But, for
these, it turns out the spec doesn't actually matter that much.
