to WinPython

The WinPython 2021-04 build1 is out for a release in september 2021.

This cycle aims to:

- upgrade to Jupyterlab-3.1, Spyder-5.1, Pandas-1.3.1

- provide more Dashboarding tools

- improve PyPy3 branch in number of packages and in speed,

- publish a WinPython-3.10 branch with Python-3.10.0,

Changes from WinPython 2021-03:

- Infrastructure:

- jupyterlab-3.1.0rc1

- python-3.9.6

- New Packages:

- more dashboarding tools :

- streamlit (not for pypy3, requires pyarrow)

- dash

- Upgraded Packages:

- dashboarding tools :

- Panel-0.12.0

- variation per version:

- no Qt nor ML package in PyPy3 versions yet,

- Pytorch in standard branch only,

- portable VSCode in "cod" branch only. (but you can copy the "\t\cod" directory from one to the other)

Areas of particular interest for testers:

- jupyterlab-3.1.0rc checks

- reducing list of packages not yet ok for PyPy3.

Next build effort:

- following on PyPy3 pain points :

- compatibility fix from Cpython packages: jupyter_core, pandas-1.3.1 fix for PyPy, pyproj bug

- PyPy-7.3.6 to suppress some speed problems

- hpy/cpython-hpy to give a warp-speed bump to C-packages

nota:

- to help the JIT-compiler effort(s) for Python, there is also an alpha of PyPy3 made from nightly PyPy of July 29th,

- you can check that some "abnormal" slowness points are resolved, and having a PyPy3 compatible with MyPy + Black + Papermill is at reach

hello,

The WinPython 2021-04 build5 is out.

Changes from WinPython 2021-04 build2:

- Infrastructure:

- adataption to PyPy 7.3.6rc1 many changes (pyrhon.exe, directory hierarchy moving clother to cpython)

- start of a PyPy-3.8 branch

- fix pip dead slow resolution (on WinPython build case) via [proposed patch](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/10479),

- New Packages:

- dash, streamlit

- Upgraded Packages:

- spyder-5.1.5, pandas-1.3.3, jupyterlab-3.1.11

- variation per version:

- no Qt nor ML package in PyPy3 versions yet,

- Pytorch in standard cpython branch only,

- portable VSCode in "cod" branch only. (but you can copy the "\t\cod" directory from one to the other)

Areas of particular interest for testers:

- spyder-5.1.5, pandas-1.3.3

- pip with proposed patch works also quicker for you

- resolved PyPy3 pain points :

- better adaptation to PyPy-3.7 structural changes in 7.3.6rc1 update

- suppression of some performance anomalies of PyPy vs cpython

Next build effort:

- following on PyPy3 pain points :

- hpy/cpython-hpy-0.0.3 (at PyPy 7.3.6 rc2 or final)

- PyPy-3.8 7.3.6rc2 fix of structural changes that broke virtualenv and venv)

- finalize release before next wave of changes:

- a solid PyPy-3.7 and cpython-3.9

- a tiny PyPy-3.8 and cpython-3.10

- true big releases of PyPy-3.8 and cpython-3.10 may only happen during next cycle (get wheels, test, get fixes, stabilize, assemble)

hello,

The WinPython 2021-04 rc is out.

If no major problem is detected, these binaries will be re-tagged as final in a few days.

Changes from WinPython 2021-04 build7

- Infrastructure:

- pip-21.3.1 solves last performance problem on WinPython 'build' process

- QtPy-1.11.3.dev0-20211030 + Pyzo (patched) to get it working on PySide6-6.2.0

- Patch Qt launchers to support PySide6

- pypy3.7-v7.3.7, python-3.9.8

- Upgraded Packages:

- PySide6-6.2.1 on WinPython-3.10 branch

- Matplotlib-3.5.0.dev2464+g95463c32e6 + networkx-2.6.4a0

- scipy-1.7.2

- variation per version:

- no Qt nor ML package in PyPy3 versions yet, 90% hope for Qt on this winter PyPy 3.8

- Pytorch in standard cpython branch only,

- portable VSCode in "cod" branch only. (but you can copy the "\t\cod" directory from one to the other)

Areas of particular interest for testers:

- PyPy-3.7-7.3.7: the best of PyPy, while PyPy-3.8 will bring futher package compatiblity next cycle

- Winpython-3.9 is stable as hell

- Matplotlib-3.5.0.dev2464+g95463c32e6: considered a matplotlib-3.5

postponed:

- matplotlib-3.5.0 final

- a big Python-3.10, as Spyder not yet there

- big releases of PyPy-3.8 and cpython-3.10 will only happen next cycle

- next shorter cycle is about waiting: Spyder-5.2, PyPy-3.8, hopefully PySide6+Spyder in PyPy,

Hi all,

As no complaints were received since rc, WinPython 2021-04 is equal to the rc version.

Binaries have been renamed on Sourceforge, and uploaded to Github .

finally a complaint ... unfortunately correct:

Winpython-3.9.8.0 contains scipy-1.17.2 and numpy-1.20.3mkl that are not compatible.

numpy-1.20.3mkl was forced down per numba-0.54 for propably good reasons, but numba- 0.53.0 still pass the winpython_checker test.

So preparing a re-spin with numpy-1.21.4mkl (latest) and numba-0.53.0 (downgraded, with maybe some problems in some details)

will be tagged Winpython-3.8.9.0post1 I suppose

post1 (2021-11-12)

Changes from WinPython 2021-04:

- spin a Winpython64-3.9.8.0post1.exe that:

- patches numba-0.54.1 to allow numpy-1.21.4+mkl

- uses numpy-1.21.4+mkl instead of numpy-1.20.3+mkl

MD5 | SHA-1 | SHA-256 | Binary | Size | SHA3-256

---------------------------------|------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------|--------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------

reason for post1:

in Winpython64-3.9.8.0.exe initial edition, there are some incompatibilities between scipy-1.17.2 and numpy-1.20.3+mkl

only WinPython64-3.9.8.0.exe is impacted.

Many thanks to @fleming79 for the quick report, see https://github.com/winpython/winpython/issues/995#issuecomment-966715218

When trying out "guidata" I stumbled accros the following issue

---> 28 from qtpy.py3compat import (

29 is_unicode,

30 to_text_string,

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'qtpy.py3compat'

It seems that qtpy has removed py3compat. See issue: https://github.com/PierreRaybaut/guidata/issues/52

Also the package docrepr fails but it seems to be in the process of being updated: https://github.com/spyder-ide/docrepr/issues/19

Should I'dd better add this and the previous case also to Release 2021-05 follow-up?

answered here https://github.com/PierreRaybaut/guidata/issues/52#issuecomment-981117845

Switching to QtPy-2-dev to get PySide6-6.2.1 support, I should have re-introduced manually and temporarly a py3compat.py file.
