macOS Builds Temporarily Disabled

Status

macOS builds have been temporarily disabled until the import issue is resolved.

Problem

The wheels build successfully on macOS but fail at import:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'blend2d._capi'

The _capi.so file is either:

  1. Not being included in the wheel
  2. In the wrong location in the wheel
  3. Has incorrect permissions/linking

What Works

✅ Linux (x86_64, aarch64) - Fully working ✅ Windows (AMD64) - Fully working

What's Disabled

❌ macOS (Intel x86_64) - Disabled ❌ macOS (Apple Silicon arm64) - Disabled

Changes Made

  1. .github/workflows/build-wheels.yml:

    • Removed macos-13 and macos-14 from build matrix

  2. pyproject.toml:

    • Added *-macosx* to skip patterns

Current Wheel Support

When published to PyPI, users will be able to install on:

  • ✅ Linux x86_64 (Python 3.8-3.12)
  • ✅ Linux aarch64/ARM64 (Python 3.8-3.12)
  • ✅ Windows AMD64 (Python 3.8-3.12)
  • ❌ macOS (all architectures) - source install only

Total: 10 wheels (5 Linux x86_64 + 5 Linux aarch64 + 5 Windows)

For macOS Users

macOS users can still install from source:

pip install blend2d --no-binary blend2d

This will compile from source (requires CMake and a C++ compiler).

Next Steps to Fix macOS

  1. Investigate wheel contents: unzip -l blend2d-*.whl
  2. Check if _capi.so is present
  3. Verify it's in blend2d/ directory
  4. Check with otool -L for missing dependencies
  5. Test locally on macOS with debug build

Re-enabling macOS

Once fixed:

  1. Restore OS list in .github/workflows/build-wheels.yml
  2. Remove *-macosx* from skip in pyproject.toml
  3. Test with new release candidate tag

Decision: Ship Linux + Windows wheels now, fix macOS later
