Right, those were forgotten. The build support was already in the GHA CI config.

Apologies for commenting here, but issues are disabled on the repo and nobody is replying to the messages on the mailing list or emails sent to the maintainers.

The most recent release of lxml, 4.6.3, is missing cp310 wheels on PyPI for

• Windows
• macOS
• aarch64 on Linux

https://pypi.org/project/lxml/#files

This is causing issues for the end users of various projects which have lxml listed as a dependency. Those users will need to build lxml from source via the available sdist tarball on the OSes/architectures with missing wheels, but lxml build dependencies will in most cases not be available or installed on the users' systems, which will then lead to an installation failure.

This is also an issue for the CI runners of those projects, and the current workaround for the CI runners is to either set up the build dependencies and compile every time, which is slow and tedious, or install custom unofficial pre-built wheels, which isn't great either.

I would really appreciate if one of the lxml maintainers could publish the missing cp310 wheels on PyPI, just like the manylinux wheels have been added in August after the latest release was published in March, or at least reply with information when wheels will be available.

Thank you very much!

The most recent release of lxml, 4.6.3, is missing cp310 wheels on PyPI

I was in the middle of preparing a new 4.6.4 release last week and didn't get it finished. I'll see that I can get it out some time next week. It should then have Py3.10 wheels for the usual platforms.

I really don't like being annoying and having to ask this follow-up question, but is there a chance for the 4.6.4 release this week? The missing wheels on 4.6.3 are causing issues for users of our project, and lxml 4.6.4 is a blocking issue for our next release which needs to support py3.10 on all platforms.
Thanks
