Hi Alex,

The error occurs when building python3-setuptools-scm >= 10.1.2.

This was reported by the AUH on June 23 (subject: "[OE-core] [AUH] 
python3-setuptools-scm: upgrading to 10.1.2 FAILED"):

File ".../setuptools_scm-10.1.2/src/setuptools_scm/_get_version.py", line 55, 
in get_version
    from vcs_versioning._environment import VcsEnvironment
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'vcs_versioning._environment'

ERROR Backend subprocess exited when trying to invoke 
get_requires_for_build_wheel

setuptools-scm's build backend calls get_version() during 
get_requires_for_build_wheel, which tries to import vcs_versioning._environment 
(a vcs-versioning 2.x API). The sysroot has vcs-versioning 1.1.1, which lacks 
that module.

SETUPTOOLS_SCM_PRETEND_VERSION is setuptools-scm's own documented mechanism for 
this situation. But if you prefer a different approach (e.g., upgrading 
vcs-versioning to 2.x), happy to defer.


Thanks,
Himani

10.1.2

Hi Mathieu,

Thanks for the pointer. I'll drop patch 2/2 since Alex's upgrade to 10.2.0 
supersedes it.

However, patch 1/2 (exporting SETUPTOOLS_SCM_PRETEND_VERSION) is still required 
- setuptools-scm 10.2.0 will fail at do_compile the same way 10.1.2 did, since 
it still probes SCM metadata via vcs-versioning when built from PyPI tarballs 
without a .git directory. Alex's upgrade will need this fix as a prerequisite.

Thanks,
Himani

Hi Himani,
