We have sunset the original Python Package Index service, which was temporarily deployed at https://legacy.pypi.org . The new PyPI is at https://pypi.org . Browser and API calls to pypi.python.org will continue to redirect to pypi.org . If you have been using legacy.pypi.org directly, please start using pypi.org : https://warehouse.readthedocs.io/api-reference/integration-guide/#migrating… If there is a feature that the new codebase does not support, you should file an issue at https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/issues as soon as possible. If you use JFrog Artifactory, please make sure you're running the latest version. Please see the guidance from JFrog https://jfrog.com/knowledge-base/why-am-i-not-able-to-connect-to-pypi-pytho… and full discussion of the issue https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/issues/3275 . Maintenance report on the sunsetting: https://status.python.org/incidents/ptvp1wnn0jmq Historical context and future plans: https://lwn.net/Articles/751458/ Sincerely, Sumana Harihareswara on behalf of the PyPI team

Pip 10.0 has been released
by Paul Moore April 14, 2018

April 14, 2018

On behalf of the PyPA, I am pleased to announce that pip 10.0 has just been released. This release has been the culmination of many months of work by the community. To install pip 10.0, you can run python -m pip install --upgrade pip or use get-pip, as described in https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/installing. If you are using a version of pip supplied by your distribution vendor, vendor-supplied upgrades will be available in due course (or you can use pip 10 in a virtual environment). (One minor issue with using get-pip on Windows - when you download get-pip.py, rename it to something that doesn't include "pip" in the name, such as "gp.py", as the standard name triggers a check in pip that aborts the run - this is being tracked in https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5219). Highlights of the new release: * Python 2.6 is no longer supported - if you need pip on Python 2.6, you should stay on pip 9, which is the last version to support Python 2.6. * Support for PEP 518, which allows projects to specify what packages they require in order to build from source. (PEP 518 support is currently limited, with full support coming in future versions - see the documentation for details). * Significant improvements in Unicode handling for non-ASCII locales on Windows. * A new "pip config" command. * The default upgrade strategy has become "only-if-needed" * Many bug fixes and minor improvements. In addition, the previously announced reorganisation of pip's internals has now taken place. Unless you are the author of code that imports the pip module (or a user of such code), this change will not affect you. If you are affected, please report the issue to the author of the offending code (refer them to https://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2017-October/031642.html for the details of the announcement). Thanks to everyone who put so much effort into the new release. Many of the contributions came from community members, whether in the form of code, participation in design discussions, or bug reports. The pip development team is extremely grateful to everyone in the community for their contributions. Thanks, Paul

New PyPI launching Monday, legacy shutdown two weeks later
by sh＠changeset.nyc April 13, 2018

April 13, 2018

Starting next week, Warehouse [pypi.org] will be the canonical Python Package Index. We announced the https://pypi.org beta on March 26 https://pyfound.blogspot.com/2018/03/warehouse-all-new-pypi-is-now-in-beta.… and your feedback and test usage have helped us get it production-ready. Monday April 16 (2018-04-16): We will launch the new PyPI, redirecting browser traffic and API calls (including "pip install") to the new site. Monday April 30 (2018-04-30): We plan to shut down legacy PyPI https://pypi.python.org . For more details, see our roadmap: https://wiki.python.org/psf/WarehouseRoadmap If your site/service links to or uses pypi.python.org, you may wish to start using pypi.org instead: https://warehouse.readthedocs.io/api-reference/integration-guide/#migrating… Thank you. -Sumana Harihareswara on behalf of the PyPI Team
