python-setuptools-scm in bionic is too outdated for some workflows #88

Closed jfernandz closed 1 year ago

jfernandz commented 1 year ago

Hi guys, I've noticed that setuptools-scm package in bionic it's pretty outdated so version cannot be determined at build time from scm(git) tags ... I've tested my software with a newer setuptools-scm version and it works as expected, but when I install python3-setuptools-scm and run python3 setup.py sdist inside the crops/poky container the setuptools sets 0.0.0 version.

Not sure if some fix is possible for this issue or I should wait until your crops/poky image be based over some newer Ubuntu version.

We actually build a matrix of ~14 distro/versions. You can choose a newer Ubuntu release: docker pull crops/poky:ubuntu-22.04 or docker pull crops/poky:ubuntu-20.04

The default (crops/poky:latest) is still Ubuntu 18.04 because MANY vendors are still stuck on requiring that version. And yes, it is 2022.

I didn't notice this, thank you very much, I've tested crops/poky:debian-11 and it's a little bit updated, sure :blush:

Thank you very much!
