Hi, New Python versions are a real problem for our current wheel system. When Python 3.5 came out, suddenly the default Python installed from Python.org did not have any binary wheels ready for it, so an install of scipy on OSX went from a few seconds to some very long time or a crash if you didn't have the requirements.
In order to avoid that, we'll need to make it easy to build and ship wheels for upcoming Python releases. I just implemented that for OSX / travis-ci over at https://github.com/matthew-brett/multibuild - you can add e.g. Python version string `3.6.0a3` to build against, which downloads and installs the pre-release installer for OSX. What to do about manylinux? I guess we need to have a pre-release Python built on the docker image. Cheers, Matthew _______________________________________________ Wheel-builders mailing list [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/wheel-builders
