Hi!

(<https: / / github. com / FEniCS / basix / search?q=pytest+version> shows that
there are no issues mentioning pytest and version.) As I am trying to
install Basix and its Python API, the tests told me:

I guess that it is safe to install it anyway. I just wanted to report
this. Thank you!

I cannot reproduce this, either on main or on the tag v0.5.0.post0.

I can’t post links, but that is how I am building, and I keep getting the message. If you need other information, let me know.

Well, you’re chasing a moving target there (AUR (en) - fenics-basix-git).

Why not try and get builds of the most recent released version working first?

Oh, ok. So, to build, it’s better to use the release version. Thank you!
[Edit]
I just rebuilt the package. It compiles, loads in Python and is able to run some basic commands.

Well, I’m not saying it’s impossible to also have a git version, but I would get the released versions working first and work from there. Thanks for contributing Arch packages, it’s much appreciated.

In fact, it is possible. Previously, I had just renamed (disabled) test_version.py. This is also related
[Edit]
Oh, my! No, it is me who should be thanking you people for such a nice job with FEniCSx. Thank you!
[Edit 2]
Also, keep in mind that the packages on aur.archlinux.org are contributed by users, and are definitely not official. The official packages are on packages.archlinux.org.

Hi @edgar, take a look the arch4edu repository, we provide the latest version of python-fenics-dolfinx.
