Binary package for Python 3.9

[noritada]

Hi,

Thank you very much for providing a useful package.

Since Python 3.9 was released on 2 weeks ago, Oct. 5, 2020, it would be nice if this package can have a binary package for Python 3.9. Do you have a plan to make a new release in the near future? It seems that cibuildwheel already supports 3.9 and I think the next release will automatically have a package for that version.

Since pip install tries to run setup.py bdist_wheel in 3.9 environments as of now, if there is a new release in the near future, I'd like to wait.

Sorry for just asking a question. Many thanks!

Thanks for the heads up. It hadn't occurred to me that I'd need to update the wheel building for 3.9, but it shouldn't be hard - I'll do a new release with that soon.

Thank you very much for your comments! It is very helpful for me.

I've uploaded wheels for v1.0.2a3 to pypi, could you check that they work for you?

pip install mecab-python3==1.0.2a3

If that's OK I can make it a proper release.

Getting the builds working was a little trickier than expected as Travis seemed to pull down an old version of cibuildwheel for the first few builds, but it seems to be working fine now.

Thank you very much for your releasing and dealing with Travis' behavior. I appreciate it.

Now I can successfully install the wheel of that version.

%  pip3 install mecab-python3=="1.0.2a3"

So, I should close this issue. Many thanks!

Thanks for the confirmation! Since it's kind of late today I'll make the release tomorrow morning.
