Musl linux wheels are missing

/code # pip --version
pip 23.0 from /usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/pip (python 3.9)
/code # python --version
Python 3.9.16
/code # pip install rdkit
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement rdkit (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for rdkit

The docker image used is python:3.9-alpine. Not using conda.

Does this mean it does not support Python 3.9?

I think Alpine links the musl C library. There are currently no builds linked to musl on PyPI, but they could be added.

If you use debian-based image (Ubuntu or similar) it will work. Do you need to use Alpine for your project for any specific reason?

[foxbunny]

Ah, that makes sense. It's not my project so I'm not sure if it needs to be specifically Alpine. I guess not, though.

[kuelumbus]

Alright. I'll give this further consideration and run some tests. Let's leave this issue open for now.
