Installation on Python 3.11 fails

[yorickdowne]

During pip3 install requirements.txt, the build fails when Python 3.11 is used, even when python3-dev is installed.

Are you using arm64 or x86_64 architecture?

x86_64

[mingyuanlee]

First, I use Python3.9, because Python3.11 causes other issues like default_library something. And pip install Cython solves the problem for me.

[yorickdowne]

So is the story here that requirements.txt should include cython? I can do some testing and offer a PR.

python 3.11 is default in bookworm for example.

This also fails for on macos (arm64) with python 3.11.

Nevertheless, it installs fine using python 3.10 !

[yorickdowne]

cytoolz (and thus toolz) requires a version bump to install with Python 3.11

mutable defaults in keystore.py needed to be changed to use default_factory

[yorickdowne]

The linked PR also covers Python 3.12, the expected default in Ubuntu 24.04.

For others finding this, the friendly fork of deposit cli works on modern Python versions.

I am facing the same issue but for different reasons.
Distro: Debian 12 (bookworm)

Just to reiterate, staking deposit cli uses Python 3.8, 3.9 or 3.10. It is ossified.

ethstaker deposit cli is actively supported and supports Python 3.9 through 3.13. Audits with Trail of Bits, the original auditors of staking deposit cli, have started; we expect an audited release in a month or two.

Thank you to the EF crew for developing this software and embracing a friendly fork to carry it forward.
