subprocess32 does not have a binary manylinux1 wheel about python-subprocess32 HOT 3 CLOSED

The benefit of subprocess32 comes from compiling the extension module on a modern system. manylinux1 is too old to provide all of the necessary system and libc header APIs. I am not going to provide a manylinux1 wheel.

Providing a manylinux1 wheel would prevent people from getting the proper benefit of subprocess32 by forcing them to use substandard fallback APIs. This would become the default behavior for most people because pip is naive enough to default to accepting a wheel when there is a perfectly good development environment that can build extension modules on the system present.

See #14 and #12 for previous discussions.

If manylinux2010 ever happens, that is likely recent enough to work properly. pypa/manylinux#179 tracks the status of manylinux2010. By the time it is worth considering using that, Python 2 will be EOL which effectively means subprocess32 is EOL...

I think we will see manylinux2010 quite soon as I seen more progress on it, hopefully.

@gpshead it actually looks like manylinux10 support is in pip already pypa/pip#5410
