I am new to python, and am trying to install some modules/packages using .whl file. The system does not have access to the internet so everything is local.

  • I'm running RHEL 6.9 64bit 2.6.32-696.10.1.el6.x86_64

  • Python is version 2.7.12 (altinstalled with 2.6)

  • platform.architecture() ('64bit', 'ELF')

  • I'm running pip 9.0.1

Attempt at installing numpy:

# /usr/local/bin/pip2.7 install numpy-1.13.3-cp27-cp27m-manylinux1_x86_64.whl
numpy-1.13.3-cp27-cp27m-manylinux1_x86_64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.

So what am I missing?

    Do you know which `--enable-unicode` argument was used at Python interpreter build time? – Charles Duffy Oct 18 '17 at 20:03
  • (Alternately, are you willing to consider using a Docker image for your Python runtime from the `manylinux` folks? That'll give you something *guaranteed* compatible). – Charles Duffy Oct 18 '17 at 20:04

    You might consider starting from the [Platform Detection for Installers](https://github.com/pypa/manylinux/blob/master/pep-513.rst#platform-detection-for-installers) section of PEP-513 -- walking through the code there should give you an idea of where things fail. – Charles Duffy Oct 18 '17 at 20:06
  • I used --enable-unicode=ucs4 – wazzu62 Oct 19 '17 at 21:18

cp27-cp27m manylinux packages are compatible with a Python interpreter compiled with --enable-unicode=ucs2.

For an interpreter compiled with --enable-unicode=ucs4, you instead need cp27-cp27mu packages.
