I have installed pySMT for Python 3.12 using PyCharm package manager with a conda environment in Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS:
$ pip show pysmt
Name: PySMT
Version: 0.9.6
Summary: A solver-agnostic library for SMT Formulae manipulation and solving
Home-page:
Author: PySMT Team
Author-email: [email protected]
License: APACHE
Location: .../lib/python3.12/site-packages
Requires:
Required-by:
However, if I try to install a solver, or, for example, "show you which solvers have been found in your PYTHONPATH", I get a SetuptoolsDeprecationWarning:
$ pysmt-install --check
.../lib/python3.12/site-packages/setuptools/_distutils/cmd.py:79: SetuptoolsDeprecationWarning: setup.py install is deprecated.

Please avoid running ``setup.py`` directly.
Instead, use pypa/build, pypa/installer or other
standards-based tools.
See .html for details.

self.initialize_options()
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
FileExistsError: [Errno 17] File exists: '.../miniforge3/envs/.../bin/python3.12'
What am I missing? Why would pysmt-install use the deprecated setup.py?
Perplexity suggested to pip install --upgrade setuptools but I'm not convinced.
Edit: There is one similar open issue in the pySMT Github repo but it is related to MacOS with M1:
Cannot install msat solver on MacOs with M1

Reset to default 1What am I missing?
I don't know – is there an error here that you're trying to solve? What you're seeing is a warning that's saying, well, exactly what it's saying, that projects these days should use PEP 517 builds.
Why would pysmt-install use the deprecated setup.py?
Because that's what it's written to do (1, 2).
There's a whole bunch of grody patching going on in those installers anyway, and looks like those "sub-packages" just haven't been updated to use modern build methods.
