1 month ago Update: even if I invert the order between checkout and setup-python so that setup-python is the very first action to run, it still fails: https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/pull/4343.

1 month ago macos-latest was recently changed from macos-13 to macos-14. macos-13 was x86_64, while macos-14 is arm64.
This action fails on macos-latest from python 3.8, 3.9, and 3.10... but seems to be okay with python 3.11.

1 month ago Hi @ReenigneArcher, thank you very much for having a look on this.
Yeah, I need this specifically on Python 3.8 (I did notice it work fine on 3.11).
If you're relying on packages installed by homebrew or pre-installed to the runners, then the homebrew path is different on arm64 macs, verus the x86_64. The new path is /opt/homebrew instead of /usr/local.
I don't think I am. Even when actions/setup-python@v5 is the very first step to be executed in the job, with no custom code before, it fails. I never get past actions/setup-python@v5 to have the chance to use pre-installed packages or packages installed by homebrew...
You can see more details and the workflow file in https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/pull/4343.

Sorry, I didn't mean "you"... I meant the code within the action.
I'm also experiencing the same issue as you, but wanted to share some information based other issues I've noticed with the new arm64 runners. I don't think github vetted the change to macos-14 (arm64) very well before making it the latest. Ideally all the actions they maintain should have been compatible with new architecture out of the box.
Description: The
setup-pythonaction fails when installing Python 3.8 on themacos-latest. Please note that thesetup-pythonaction is the second one to run, just after checkout.https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/actions/runs/8982558570/job/24670435133?pr=4329#step:3:32

Expected behavior:
The
setup-pythonaction should successfully install Python 3.8 onmacos-latestindependently of the contents of the repository where the action is running.Actual behavior:
The
setup-pythonaction fails to install Python 3.8 onmacos-latestfor thesetuptoolsrepository.Please note that the issue is happening on the
setuptoolsrepository specifically, which may mean the following:setup-pythoncan be affected by which folders and files are present on the current working directory when the action runs...cdinto/tmpbefore running the commands onsetup-python? Or use some of the isolation flags when running Python scripts (e.g.-I)?Also note that the suggestions in https://github.com/actions/setup-python/issues/850#issuecomment-2097496030 are not applicable. As far as I understand:
Upgrading setuptools: The suggestion to install an updated version of setuptools before the step that is failing is not feasible. The step that is failing is the installation of Python itself. Therefore, it's not possible to update anything when Python is not installed yet[^1].
Replacing setup.py with pyproject.toml: This suggestion also does not work and contains misleading and inaccurate information. The
pyproject.tomlis not more robust, it is just a different configuration format. Furthermore,setup.py,setup.cfg, andpyproject.tomlare not mutually exclusive; they can all exist at the same time and serve different purposes. This is exactly the case in the repository experiencing the issue.[^1]: Unless the users should always assume that the Python is pre-installed on the worker and how this affects the available actions. Please let me know if there is any documentation about this.
