Hello all, Re: http://lists.open-bio.org/pipermail/biopython-dev/2016-June/021446.html and http://lists.open-bio.org/pipermail/biopython-dev/2016-June/021447.html After updating/installing pip, setuptools, wheel, and numpy using the following I was able to build some 32bit Windows precompiled wheels for Biopython 1.67, # ensure get a clean package rm -rf build # using the tag from the release git checkout biopython-167 # We need this update to enable the bdist_wheel command: git cherry-pick 489d200406c3e6e9e4f14e68ac6f48bd4095b7c6 # Make the wheels C:\Python27\python setup.py bdist_wheel C:\Python34\python setup.py bdist_wheel I could now try pushing these up to PyPI (with twine), see: https://github.com/biopython/biopython.github.io/commit/7bd4f6ac275195a4eda573f1afe859815d8e6009 However, I think it would be wiser to get an independent test first - any volunteers? I could share the files by email or dropbox, and if they seem to work then next I would suggest we put them on our website via https://github.com/biopython/DIST before PyPI. Note these were build using numpy 1.11.0 binary wheels, so it would be interesting to test them against other ways of installing numpy like the Windows installers - will that be compatible not? Any volunteers with a 32 bit Windows machine? You'd install the wheel with: C:\Python27\Scripts\pip install biopython-1.67-cp27-cp27m-win32.whl or: C:\Python34\Scripts\pip install biopython-1.67-cp34-cp24m-win32.whl Peter
