Just to link the various pieces together: I think https://bitbucket.org/pypa/distlib/src/2d145da7cb42590039fbd56a9ab764d5d4716a98/distlib/wheel.py#lines-53 is the place in distlib that's being breaking pip due to redefining distutils.util.get_platform() as the cross-compile target architecture rather than the build architecture. https://docs.python.org/3/distutils/apiref.html doesn't show it as a documented public function, but the commit Ryan linked did introduce a new get_host_plaform() that matches the old behavior; if that became public and distlib used itinstead (conditional on the python version?) that would also be a way to fix the symptom Ryan noted (pip now choosing the wrong wheel to install). I don't know how the pieces here fit together well enough to now which side should change. @zooba: adding you to the Cc since it was your comments at https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/11774#discussion_r254461961 that seem to have led to the decision to re-define get_platform, maybe you have some relevant context? ---------- nosy: +steve.dower _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue38989> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
