1.4.0 fails to build from source about kiwi HOT 22 CLOSED

This is breaking our entire CI environment. And thanks to build isolation, which always pulls in the latest setuptools version, I can't even fix it with a pin.
Is this an issue with setuptools, or with kiwisolver?

from kiwi.

Due to how pip manage isolated build environment you are still getting the latest setuptools (hence my recommandation to edit pyproject.toml).

#131 has been merged so main should now build cleanly. I will do a new release ASAP.

from kiwi.

Setuptools bug fixes does not disable auto discovery which causes the issue in kiwisolver. I will do my best to cut 1.4.1 today

from kiwi.

Should be fixed by 1.4.1

Should be fixed by 1.4.1

It works now thks a lot.

from kiwi.

Thanks for the report. It may be related to the latest setuptools release. Can you post the exact comment you invoked ?

pip install kiwisolver is how I tried to install it.

from kiwi.

I'm not sure it's a setuptools issue, setuptools 49.6.0 also gives the same error (I tried some other setuptools releases, and I did upgrade setuptools initially when the install failed).

from kiwi.

Ah, it does look like a setuptools issue (partially), as if I use --no-build-isolation with setuptools 60.10.0, then I do get a different error.

from kiwi.

Ah, and that's fixed by installing setuptools_scm[toml]>=3.4.3. So I think this is a setuptools regression.

from kiwi.

I've filed pypa/setuptools#3197 with the setuptools developers.

from kiwi.

Based on your first error message setuptools may be confused by the fact that kiwi does not have any source to include since it is a single C extension. If you want to experiment you could try specifying it explicitly in setup.py .

from kiwi.

I suspect there's some underlying assumption in setuptools that there will be some python files to package (as far as I can see kiwisolver has none, as the tests aren't included). I wonder if having a dummy __init__.py which imports everything from the shared library might make setuptools happy (and the tests could be installed also, if so desired).

from kiwi.

Actually it may take some extra work since I apparently messed up and the type annotations are not installed properly currently. So I will indeed need a package to hold both the extension and the annotations. It will take me some time to get to it. If this is something you would be interested in working into let me know.

from kiwi.

Is there something i can do to install kiwi ? Since kiwi required to install matplotlib

from kiwi.

Wheels should install just fine. I believe the issue only affects building from source.

from kiwi.

Yeah I am using termux an android emulator of bash. So there's no wheel for it. Seems like i gotta wait for it to be solved.

from kiwi.

You can clone the repo and put a bound setuptools<=60 in pyproject.toml. Only the latest version of setuptools broke things.

from kiwi.

Setuptools broke kiwi. However it also helped discover some issues related to the distribution of type hints. #131 will fix both. I will do my best to make a 1.4.1 release shortly.

from kiwi.

#131 is in so you should be able to build from the repo at least.

I installed an older version of setuptools. But I am still getting the error aragilar posted in the first post.

~/app $ pip list | grep setup
setuptools 59.8.0
~/app $ pip install --no-cache-dir kiwisolver

setuptools also in the meantime released bugfix versions that should restore the ability to build 1.4.0.
But apparently it didn't work for kiwisolver?
