Unfortunately the check for Cython is not made conditional: try: import Cython However later in the setup.py, the following only adds (registers) and actual cython dependency if socket.c doesnt exist (indicating cython sources havent been compiled) if not os.path.exists(os.path.join("zmq", "backend", "cython", "socket.c")): # this generally means pip install from git # which requires Cython setup_args.setdefault("setup_requires", []).append( f"cython>={min_cython_version} Adding a cython dependency to the port is spurious, and a better approach is either: 1) merge/move the import line to within the source file check, so both the try import and the registration are conditional, and send upstream, OR 2) hack: remove the try/import/exception block. As far as Python version support goes, the standard is to declare version support against the versions upstream CI's and passes tests against. If they are testing with Cython builds, that means their sdist pipeline is untested, which is problematic and should be reported too. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
