This is because setuptools.command.build was introduced since 62.4.0 (see https://github.com/pypa/wheel/issues/487#issuecomment-1307574510), which require Python >= 3.7.

From this point of view, we need to update our 3.0.x release with minimum python_requires=">=3.7", too

Thanks @hswong3i,

This is because setuptools.command.build was introduced since 62.4.0 (see https://github.com/pypa/wheel/issues/487#issuecomment-1307574510), which require Python >= 3.7.

So, this would be better addressed by directly declaring the Setuptools version dependency, no? And the Python minimum version will be inferred from that.

I have created a merge request that directly declares a Setuptools minimum version dependency. Can you try this and confirm it resolves this issue?

Oh how a good idea, and why not both ?_?

Sometime double fail-safe may looks overkill, but specifying python_requires=">=3.7" could also make it clear we had drop support for legacy EOL Python 3.6, with a new birth 3.0.x major release ;-)

Oh how a good idea, and why not both ?_?

I'll treat the Python dependency as a separate matter.

Meanwhile, would you try the version on that branch, and confirm this minimal change does resolve the issue in your test environment?

The local changes with https://pagure.io/python-daemon/pull-request/77 doesn't means anything when pip working directly pypi.org?

Moreover, I had already proof with https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:alvistack/pagure.io-python-daemon-3.0.0, that legacy OS with Python 3.6 fail for sure, where modern OS with Python >= 3.7 + setuptools >= 62.4.0 could package + install deb/rpm correctly.

I could re-test once you have a new version release to pypi.org, and provide feedback ASAP with my local OBS deb/rpm packaging experience.

Please test using the TestPyPI repository; I have uploaded a "release candidate" there (version "3.0.1rc1"). You can direct 'pip' to that repository:

Yes. What still needs to be tested, is the specification of a minimum Setuptools version in the package, and how that affects your test environment.

I don't feel good enough? Still 3.0.0 could be selected from test.pypi.org, where my local setuptools == 39.0.1 installed from Ubuntu 18.04 apt:

Thank you, that suffices to prevent a broken installation. And the error message correctly identifies exactly which package needs to be upgraded.

I have released 'python-daemon' version 3.0.1 with this dependency as described.

With my image with pip3 == 21.3.1 from OBS (see https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:alvistack/pypa-pip-21.3.1), it could successfully select the legacy 2.3.2 version:

Therefore problem goes to if end-user have a new enough pip for understanding the yanked package from pypi.org, but at least here we had already do our best to provide correct information ;-)
