Disable python2 builds for the 2019.03 release cycle #28

Closed greglandrum closed 5 years ago

greglandrum commented 5 years ago

As of the 2019.03 release cycle, the RDKit no longer supports Python 2. We'll keep doing bug fixes with Python 2 builds on the 2018.09 release branch for another year and then turn that off too, so theoretically we could keep doing conda-forge builds against that release branch for a while.

More info about this in the release notes: https://github.com/rdkit/rdkit/blob/master/ReleaseNotes.md#really-important-announcement

I'm not sure what the best practice is to handle this in conda-forge.

I just did a beta release for 2019.03.1 and hope to do the actual release next Monday or Tuesday.

I believe we can just create a '2018.09' branch in the feedstock, and it will be treated the same as the master branch by all the CI scripts.

Looks like there was some discussion here https://github.com/conda-forge/conda-forge.github.io/issues/87 about whitelisting branches to publish from, but it never happened.
