We would be grateful for all the testing that users could do to ensure that, when pip 20.1 is released, it's as solid as we can make it.

We are doing some basic testing in Fedora.

So far everyhting looks good.

We've tested:

Basic CI smoke testing with venvs, virtualenvs, tox: - CPython 3.5-3.8 (will add 3.9) - PyPy 3.6

Bundling in Fedora and running non-network tests during build on CPython 3.8.2 and 3.9.0a5.

Building couple PEP 517/518 packages (pytest, pluggy, clickit, entyrpoints).

Building and self-testing CPython 3.5-3.9 and PyPy 3.6 using a wheel of this pip, passed their ensurepip and venv tests during the build.

I have now experienced some weird permissions:

/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip-20.1b1.dist-info/INSTALLER 600 /usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip-20.1b1.dist-info/RECORD 600 /usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip-20.1b1.dist-info/direct_url.json 600

Will try to reproduce this outside of our build environment and will report an issue.

I suspect this is https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/8139 (for which we have a fix prepared).

Yes indeed. I have opened https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/8153 in the meantime (the linked issue didn't rally stand out when searching). Closed as duplicate. This would indeed generate a lot of problems in Fedora if not fixed in 20.1. Thanks! -- Miro Hrončok -- Phone: +420777974800 IRC: mhroncok
