0.4.0: pytest is failing

[kloczek]

Describe the bug

Looks like with new version pytest is failing in few units.

Reproduce the bug

I'm packaging your module as an rpm package so I'm using the typical PEP517 based build, install and test cycle used on building packages from non-root account.

• python3 -sBm build -w --no-isolation
• because I'm calling build with --no-isolation I'm using during all processes only locally installed modules
• install .whl file in </install/prefix> using 'installer` module
• run pytest with $PYTHONPATH pointing to sitearch and sitelib inside </install/prefix>
• build is performed in env which is cut off from access to the public network (pytest is executed with -m "not network")

Here is pytest output:

Hi @kloczek, same issue in Debian. Please see #92

[chrisjsewell]

I'm afraid the tests are not intended for end users, there is no guarantee they work outside of this repository and its CLI/dev setup

[kloczek]

Packagers are not end users.

[chrisjsewell]

Packagers are not end users.

This package is written and distributed for users, not packagers.
If you do not want to package it because of the limitations I would understand and encourage you not to

[kloczek]

You are forgetting that currently almost none od the end users is using self build and installed software.

So what what is wrong in this case that pytest fails? 🤔

[chrisjsewell]

You are forgetting that currently almost none od the end users is using self build and installed software.

No they are using wheel installs from pypi, using pip or uv, this is the only way I recommend using python packages, and the only focus of support.

The only stipulation on the tests is that they work in the CI, nothing more

[kloczek]

No they are using wheel installs from pypi, using pip or uv, this is the only way I recommend using python packages, and the only focus of support.

Really?
Basing on what you are claiming that? 🤔

The 1 million downloads per day from pypi https://pypistats.org/packages/mdit-py-plugins

But look this is not a debate, I'm just doing you the courtesy of letting you know the priority for this repository and in fact for every python package I author/maintain (and has always been).

This is open source software, free, there is no obligation on my part to do anything;
if this is not to your taste, you are absolutely welcome to not use it, or to fork it, the choice is yours

[kloczek]

The 1 million downloads per day from pypi https://pypistats.org/packages/mdit-py-plugins

Please try to look on those data closer.
Most of the downloads are for python version no longer supported by and/or any latest version of any Linux/BSD/Solaris/Win distributions.
Those people have no choice ..
