The manylinux wheels distributed on PyPI need to be built against the oldest glibc imaginable, which is defined to be the glibc on some ancient version of CentOS (a different version for each different manylinux platform tag).
If you build your own wheels, of course no one’s going to stop you from building against anything.
- int_19h 5y agoThis is how it used to be back when manylinux was separately versioned. Since https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0600/ https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0600/, you just say which version of glibc you expect: manylinux_2_17_x86_64 etc.
