Cannot untilize C extensions on x86 Linux platform when installed through pip #145

Closed leonright closed 3 years ago

leonright commented 3 years ago

Starting from version 0.8.4 of jellyfish, a universal wheel for all platforms has been published. At the same time, there is no wheel for x86 Linux platforms.

This results in pip preferring the universal wheel over source installation (see the warning note in the Pure Python section on the wheels web-page), thus the pure Python implementation without the C extensions is always installed.

Our project requires high precision when computing string distances, so we would appreciate if this issue would be resolved so we could use latest versions of the library

Thank you for your time

thanks for the heads up, i'll release a fix w/o a universal wheel while we wait to figure out how to get the manylinux wheels working better

let me know if 0.8.8 (which should be fully uploaded in ~5 mins) fixes the issue

Thank you for the quick response 🙇

Yes, 0.8.8 worked for us. Thanks for dealing with it
