Python zeroc-ice package for statically-linked linux x86_64

Hi, I see wheels exist for macos and windows here https://pypi.python.org/pypi/zeroc-ice/3.6.3, and was wondering whether wheels for linux x86_64 could be added. When I do pip install zeroc-ice from my linux box, it goes through a long compilation process that I would like to avoid if possible. I have managed to build wheels myself, but I would rather get them from the pypi source.

Thanks
Corey

    Hi,

    Wheels on Linux is more complicated than Windows / macOS because of Ice dependencies on 3rd party libraries. See this PEP for a glimpse of what's involved. This is something we can look into again once 3.7.0 is released.

    Cheers,
    Benoit.

  • Thank you for the response, Benoit!

    I'll be looking forward to this.
