Downstream developers should use Cython >= 0.29.16 for Python 3.8 support and OpenBLAS >= 3.7 to avoid wrong results on the Skylake architecture. The NumPy Wheels for this release can be downloaded from PyPI, source archives and release notes are available from Github.
just so that i can re-configure (if necessary) our automation in Debian, is this going to be the future setting for releasing numpy? wheels via PyPI and source via github? I stumbled upon this since there's no source release available on PyPI for 1.19.0rc2
That looks like a mistake. An sdist must be uploaded to PyPI, after the wheels are uploaded. That just seems to have been forgotten for rc2.
Also, I had expected the sdist to be the .tar.gz format, I can't find it back but IIRC that's what we decided in the past. It's smaller, and it's what pretty much all other projects do.
NumPy has always used zip since PyPI limited the number of source releases. We did that before SciPy. Chuck
