Ubuntu 18.04 is not supported?

environment: Ubuntu 18.04, python3.6/python3.7

3.6 no longer supported. By Ubuntu python 3.7 should work

Do you find it unsupported? If so, it should be considered a bug.

I have tried python3.7 and python3.9 on ubuntu 18.04.

Is it possible that the gcc or glibc version is the cause of this? Because ubuntu 20.04 is available.

Hi, Ubuntu18 is supported. I just tried. You must be using a pip version that's too old.

Try running pip install -U pip before pip install rocksdict.

I've just tried on a new ubuntu-18 image, with the following commands:

• apt-get update
• apt-get install python3.7
• apt-get install python3-pip (this pip version won't work, which is too old to recognize our wheel!)
• pip install -U pip (need to update pip version.)
• pip install rocksdict

While your environment might be different, it should work as long as you updated your pip version.
