Hi :) nice to see you here, im the one discussing with on Django forum.
What distro and version you are on?
Redhat 10.2?

Also, lets keep discuss the Django Valkey conversation on the Valkey slack:

hi! thanks, i'll see if i can figure out slack :p

i'm on manjaro, i can also test this with arch, if needed

i installed pypy using pyenv, version 3.11

i have rustc installed, as well as a series of C compilers

i installed the package for cpython, and it works there, but pypy errors

also, using uv with pypy i get the following error:

╰─➤  uv add valkey-glide                   
Using PyPy 3.11.11 interpreter at: /home/amirreza/.pyenv/versions/pypy3.11-7.3.19/bin/pypy3.11

Resolved 3 packages in 1.14s
error: Distribution `valkey-glide==1.3.2 @ registry+https://pypi.org/simple` can't be installed because it doesn't have a source distribution or wheel for the current platform

hint: You're using PyPy 3.11 (`pp311`), but `valkey-glide` (v1.3.2) only has wheels with the following Python implementation tags: `cp311`, `cp312`, `cp313`

Which version of Manjaro?
We have an open issue for support for older glibc, and I want to first validate whether it is the cause.

From the error it does seems related to the package manager and ill look into that. But just to validate.

[amirreza8002]

manjaro 25.0.0
which i think is the latest version

also this is the error by poetry:

    from ..glide import ClusterScanCursor
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'glide.glide'

i tested both poetry and uv with cpython 3.12 and both could install glide and work with it

@amirreza8002 I'm currently working on resolving this installation issue and will keep you updated on the progress. In the meantime, could you please let me know if this issue is blocking your development work?

[amirreza8002]

hi @BoazBD
it doesn't effect me personally
during the development of valkey backend for aiocache we encountered this problem, so i thought i'd let you know
