pixi definitions fail with pypi-dependencies #142897
Description
Bug report
Bug description:
Following #142469, I tried using the cpython pixi recipe to build another package from sources:
[workspace]
channels = ["conda-forge"]
platforms = ["linux-64", "osx-arm64"]
preview = ["pixi-build"]
[dependencies]
python = { git = "https://github.com/python/cpython", subdirectory = "Tools/pixi-packages/default" }
[pypi-dependencies]
packagehelloworld = "*"The above fails with pixi 0.62:
Error: × failed to solve the pypi requirements of environment 'default' for platform 'linux-64'
╰─▶ No Python interpreter found in the dependencies
help: Try: pixi add python

will be out in next Pixi release, this issue can probably be closed.
In the meantime, you can
pixi run install-as tixion thepixirepo if you want to use it from source @crusaderky
