Unable to create process using 'C:\Users\????????\scoop\apps\python-alpha\3.13.0b2\python.exe -m win32verstamp --version=3.13.306.0 --comments=https://github.com/mhammond/pywin32 --original-filename=pywintypes313.dll --product=PyWin32 --quiet build\lib.win-amd64-cpython-313\pywin32_system32\pywintypes313.dll': The system cannot find the file specified. ** Failed to versionstamp the binaries. ** If you want to skip this step, pass '--skip-verstamp' on the setup.py command-line
Pretty sure you're hitting the same issue as one would if running pip install -e .
locally. Pywin32 has a bootstrapping problem where it needs to already be installed to run win32verstamp . Normally this is bypassed using the --skip-verstamp
flag to the python setup.py
command.
Note that that way of running setuptools/making builds is way outdated at this point, see https://github.com/mhammond/pywin32/issues/2208
As of right now, you are intended to download a prebuilt wheel from Actions artefacts: Here's all the successful CI build jobs that ran on main: https://github.com/mhammond/pywin32/actions/workflows/main.yml?query=branch%3Amain+is%3Asuccess
Very strange error, considering I was the one who tried installing on 3.13 in the first place!
