Hi!

...

I have some trouble using the offered Windows wheels; the following is what I get from pip:

Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement lxml (from versions: )

So I had a look at the WHEEL file inside the ZIP lxml-3.6.0-cp32-none-win32.whl to see which requirements are stated inside.

Is it okay that 'Tag' is set to 'cp27-none-linux_x86_64' inside that file? Might this be the reason why no version can be found? Maybe someone can enlighten me with respect to wheels?

I have to admit that I'm completely new to wheels and quite new to Python packaging but I wouldn't expect metadata with "Linux" inside a Windows wheel? Thanks for noticing. I created them under Linux by converting the MSWindows installers. If it really says "Linux" in the metadata due to that, this feels like a bug in wheel. During conversion, it should reuse whatever

I might not have had the latest wheel version installed, though, so it could be that the bug is already fixed.

So do you an idea what to manually change to correct this? Inside the pip wheel e.g. I see two tag lines, first 'py2-none-any' and second 'py3-none-any'. And another question: can this wheel only be used with python 3.2? I'm using 3.4.3 - that's why I wonder whether this is compatible? Heiko

Okay, then I have to build it myself? Anyways ... I get a step further by changing the wheel file and renaming the WHL file from 'lxml-3.6.0-cp32-none-win32.whl' to 'lxml-3.6.0-py3-none-any.whl' although this is of course not correct. Then I get the following error: Collecting lxml Exception: Traceback (most recent call last): File "d:\debug\_make\venv\lib\site-packages\pip\basecommand.py", line 209, in main status = self.run(options, args) File "d:\debug\_make\venv\lib\site-packages\pip\commands\install.py", line 310, in run wb.build(autobuilding=True) File "d:\debug\_make\venv\lib\site-packages\pip\wheel.py", line 748, in build self.requirement_set.prepare_files(self.finder) File "d:\debug\_make\venv\lib\site-packages\pip\req\req_set.py", line 360, in prepare_files ignore_dependencies=self.ignore_dependencies)) File "d:\debug\_make\venv\lib\site-packages\pip\req\req_set.py", line 621, in _prepare_file dist = abstract_dist.dist(finder) File "d:\debug\_make\venv\lib\site-packages\pip\req\req_set.py", line 108, in dist self.req_to_install.source_dir))[0] IndexError: list index out of range @Clark: how do I build a wheel for my 3.4.3? Or is the wheel for 3.4.4 compatible to 3.4.3? Heiko

@Stefan: Python 3.2? Really, my least favourite version! ;-)

I'm not responsible for those builds in any way, nor do I have any interest in them. Stefan
