The last successful pipeline was on May 5th. All presumably with the same error:

Personally, I did look into this because I'd like to use a Python AppImage with the new 3.13 release. The 3.13 AppImage also shows as being from May and there are only the source tarballs in there.

Note that it is fairly easy to build the AppImages onself via:

python3 -m pip install --force-reinstall git+https://github.com/niess/python-appimage.git@master
python3 -c 'import python_appimage.commands.build.manylinux as manylinux; manylinux.execute("_2_28_x86_64", "cp311-cp311")'
ls -la 'python3.11.10-cp311-cp311-manylinux_2_28_x86_64.AppImage'

Or with my fix:

python3 -m pip install --force-reinstall git+https://github.com/mxmlnkn/python-appimage.git@master
python3 -c 'import python_appimage.commands.build.manylinux as manylinux; manylinux.execute("_2_28_x86_64", "cp313-cp313")'
ls -la 'python3.13.0-cp313-cp313-manylinux_2_28_x86_64.AppImage'

Hello @mxmlnkn,

thank you for pointing this out, and for your PR (which has been merged, with some tweaks for Python 2 backward compatibility).

After some struggle, the Python 3.13 AppImages are now available for download.

Thank you!
