Problem
With a Python 3.12 system (base?) installation,
pre-commit run check-manifest
returns an error of missing dependencies.According to this issue this is due to a change in behaviour in Python 3.12, in which apparently
wheel
is no longer preinstalled with virtualenv / venv. See release notes too.Proposed solution
Option 1: adding
wheel
as an additional dependency in.pre-commit-config.yaml
. This is implemented in this PR.Option 2: specifying a language version for Python in
check-manifest
. Feels less flexible.Questions
In CI, we run
check-manifest
with Python 3.10 and without the--no-build-isolation
flag.Do we need to make CI and the pre-commit hook more similar? Why do we run the
--no-build-isolation
flag in the pre-commits?This is only a problem if the system or python interpreter "next" to the pre-commit tool is 3.12, so not sure if we should fix this already?
