Python 3.12 and Parselmouth 0.5.0

[YannickJadoul]

Just a tracking issue in case anyone is wondering where the new Python 3.12 wheels are.
There are still a couple of things on the list, which need to happen before releasing Parselmouth 0.5.0, mostly related to finishing the cleanup of the docs:

• Cleanup docs/conf.py
• Finish configuration of new theme
• Test/decide on Parselmouth favicon
• Test/decide SVG logos in docs
• Add all class docstrings
• Check int vs. float return from parselmouth.praat.call
• Double check locale-dependent functions after Praat update
• Add test on locale-independence?
• Update Praat
• Update libfmt
• Remove locale-independent workarounds in favor of scnlib
• Figure out NumPy 2 and pybind11 update
• Add development workflow in docs

The actual wish list of new features is a lot longer, but those will unfortunately most likely have to wait for 0.6.0, as releasing Python 3.12 wheels should not be postponed for much more than a week.

Meanwhile, Python 3.12 is being tested in CI. Until new wheels are released, the latest "Wheels" workflow build should generate good-enough wheels to be installed until Parselmouth 0.5.0 gets released.

Hello,

Is there any update on python 3.12 support ? The last released wheels are still from 2022 and compiling from source seems to fail on all the machines I tried. I've successfully installed the package using the latest wheel cli but I am curious about the "official" realease.

I hope you are doing alright, and thanks for the work ^^

Hi, @aaron-randreth, thanks for the kind bump!
I've come to terms that I should try to at least get the 3.12 wheels out as soon as possible, even if 0.5.0 isn't ready. The wheels are building on CI; I just need to make sure that I quickly run the tests as well...

Python 3.12 wheels for 0.4.3 are built, tested, and uploaded to PyPI. So installing with pip should now smoothly install binary pre-built wheels again!

Work on 0.5.0 continues!

Thanks, good luck for 0.5.0!
