Hi all, we’re trying to use the option

[python].resolves_to_no_binary

as explained here. we put in our pants.toml the following:

resolves_to_no_binary = {__default__=["cairocffi"]}

which should do the same as the

--no-binary

option of pip, that let us to install this dependency without errors. Unfortunately we are not able to replicate the behaviour with pants, do you have any idea why?

Presumably it's not just a typo (should be

resolves_to_only_binary

), in which case can you run with

-ldebug

and provide full logs? Presumably the 1st thing to run is

generate-lockfiles

which should generate a lockfile with no source distributions for

cairocffi

mentioned. The second step would be to re-run whatever was failing after that.

ok we’ll try asap, thanks

Great. What worked exactly? Was it the typo or was it running generate-lockfiles? What were the missing pieces?

I put this

resolves_to_only_binary

instead of

resolves_to_no_binary

, which seemed strange given what solved the problem with pip was the

--no-binary

option 😅

Aha. Now I'm confused. We support both. Your

link above pointed to only but your words said no; so I thought you were typoed. I'm gald things are working, but that feels shaky to me.

ah I sent the wrong link then
