During installation, error with 'typed-ast' python package

[PaulSchulz]

During installation of the toltec environment I get the following error:

Requirement already satisfied: wrapt==1.12.1 in ./venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages (from -r requirements.txt (line 28)) (1.12.1)
Installing collected packages: typed-ast, regex, pyelftools, mypy-extensions, mccabe, certifi, appdirs, urllib3, toml, six, pathspec, mypy, MarkupSafe, lazy-object-proxy, isort, idna, click, chardet, websocket-client, requests, python-dateutil, Jinja2, black, astroid, pylint, docker
DEPRECATION: typed-ast is being installed using the legacy 'setup.py install' method, because it does not have a 'pyproject.toml' and the 'wheel' package is not installed. pip 23.1 will enforce this behaviour change. A possible replacement is to enable the '--use-pep517' option. Discussion can be found at pypa/pip#8559

The process I used, on Ubuntu 23.04.

git clone https://github.com/toltec-dev/toltec
cd toltec
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

We use python 3.8.

If you are wanting to build a specific package, I'd recommend using toltecmk instead of using the code in the toltec repository. The toltec repo's build code is used for automating the building and publishing of the repository as a whole, and is intended to be run from github actions. For individual package development, toltecmk is the intended tool.

Thank you.
Ubuntu 2023.4 is using Python 3.11.2

I wll look at tolteccmk.
(I am looking to build a c binary for Re2, and appear to need libc-2.31)

./hello: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by ./hello)
reMarkable: ~/ file /lib/libc.so.6
/lib/libc.so.6: symbolic link to libc-2.31.so

I'd recommend asking for help getting building to work in the community discord, or in the discussions section.

I'm leaving this issue open, but I'll be changing the title, as the issue is that typed-ast is now end of life, and our code should be updated to no longer use it: python/typed_ast#179

It looks like it's just a dependency of black, so I'm opening a PR to update black to a newer version that doesn't need typed-ast.

Not sure if this should be a new issue, but on python 3.11 I'm getting:

Collecting wrapt==1.12.1 (from -r requirements.txt (line 27))
  Downloading wrapt-1.12.1.tar.gz (27 kB)

INFO: pip is looking at multiple versions of astroid to determine which version is compatible with other requirements. This could take a while.
ERROR: Cannot install -r requirements.txt (line 2) and wrapt==1.12.1 because these package versions have conflicting dependencies.

The conflict is caused by:
    The user requested wrapt==1.12.1
    astroid 2.15.4 depends on wrapt<2 and >=1.14; python_version >= "3.11"

To fix this you could try to:
1. loosen the range of package versions you've specified
2. remove package versions to allow pip attempt to solve the dependency conflict

The toltec toolset requires python 3.10 currently. Toltecmk works with 3.11
