Hi, We need psutil to handle backend process management, ie allow the user to terminate long-running backup or restore job. I don't see any alternative to psutil at a moment which supports cross-platform process management like psutil do.
I think the reason why there is no binary wheel is that it is hard to maintain platform specific binary wheels. -- Regards, Murtuza Zabuawala EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company On Thu, Nov 8, 2018 at 6:02 AM David Gilman <davidgilm...@gmail.com> wrote: > It looks like the most recent release of pgadmin4, 3.5, added a dependency > on > psutil==5.4.7 .
