Source: ffc Version: 2019.2.0~legacy20230509.35df986-5 Severity: serious Affects: python3-pip
Hi, debian/tests/test-ffc uses pip to install ffc-factory for the tests. In the current version in testing, this shows the fallowing warning: > Building wheels for collected packages: fenics-ffc-factory > DEPRECATION: Building 'fenics-ffc-factory' using the legacy setup.py > bdist_wheel mechanism, which will be removed in a future version. pip 25.3 > will enforce this behaviour change. A possible replacement is to use the > standardized build interface by setting the `--use-pep517` option, (possibly > combined with `--no-build-isolation`), or adding a `pyproject.toml` file to > the source tree of 'fenics-ffc-factory'. Discussion can be found at > https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/6334 With the latest version of pip in unstable (25.3), this now breaks (as promised by the deprecation notice). Explicitly specifying --use-pep517 should work. You'll need --no-build-isolation too, to be able to do this without downloading code from the Internet. Stefano
