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.

@hipsterelectron isn't manylinux2010 eol in favor of manylinux_2_28 based on rhel 8?

@leo this happened because i posted at least 20 separate times on my pip PRs that this fucking guy swooped in to stonewall that "hey isn't it weird how our linux ABI is defined in terms of an EOL centos image" https://peps.python.org/pep-0599/ and his eyes suddenly flashed with recognition

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...

@hipsterelectron "This will allow package maintainers to take advantage of new tags more quickly, while making better use of limited volunteer time." lol

@leo consider the first manylinux PEP https://peps.python.org/pep-0513/#compilation-of-compliant-wheels
in 2016:

For Linux, the situation is much more delicate. In general, compiled Python extension modules built on one Linux distribution will not work on other Linux distributions, or even on different machines running the same Linux distribution with different system libraries installed.

https://peps.python.org/pep-0384/
now consider 2009:

On Linux, changes to the ABI are often not much of a problem: the system will provide a default Python installation, and many extension modules are already provided pre-compiled for that version.

PEP 513 – A Platform Tag for Portable Linux Built Distributions | peps.python.org

This PEP proposes the creation of a new platform tag for Python package built distributions, such as wheels, called manylinux1_{x86_64,i686} with external dependencies limited to a standardized, restricted subset of the Linux kernel and core userspace A...

@leo btw i never heard that pypi legit banned noncompliant wheels. i thought it was just a standard you did because fucking whatever. i was convinced for many years that ABI was a spooky scary skeleton. i got over that when it turns out tensorflow just lies all the time https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/7424 lies to pypi, lies to you, lies to itself

@leo worst part of it was calling javascript malware and not the browser. i refuse to use ableist insults but i have decided gnu is this little pocket universe and the fsf is just some letters
