Description
**scikit-build** is a Python build system for CPython C/C++/Fortran/Cython extensions using CMake. The scikit-build package is fundamentally just glue between the ``setuptools`` Python module and `CMake`_. The next generation of scikit-build, `scikit-build-core`_, is currently under development. This provides a simple, reliable build backend for CMake that does not use setuptools and provides a lot of new features. Scikit-build-core can also power a setuptools-based extension system, which will eventually become the backend for scikit-build (classic). If you do not require extensive customization of the build process, you should consider trying scikit-build-core instead of scikit-build. To get started, see `this example <https://scikit-build.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage.html#example-of-setup-py-cmakelists-txt-and-pyproject-toml>`_. For more examples, see `scikit-build-sample-projects <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build-sample-projects>`_.

Bug fixes --------- * Support added for SunOS by `@mtelka <https://github.com/mtelka>`_ in `#983 <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build/pull/983>`_. * Support added for AIX (with recent CMake) by `@bhuntsman <https://github.com/bhuntsman>`_ in `#988 <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build/pull/988>`_.

Miscellaneous ------------- * Docs improvements in `#979 <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build/pull/979>`_. Scikit-build 0.17.5 =================== A small fix release fixing the passing on of generator specific arguments. This fixes some cases where the Ninja generator was found but then was unable to build. NetBSD was reported to work, so was added to the BSD's supported. Bug fixes --------- * Generator args were missing for actual compile in `#975 <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build/pull/975>`_. * Add support for netbsd & pyodide (future) in `#977 <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build/pull/977>`_. Scikit-build 0.17.4 =================== A followup fix to the issue 0.17.3 tried to fix. We now have a method to manually test downstream packages, too. Bug fixes --------- * Make sure include dir is found even if the lib is not present in `#974 <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build/pull/974>`_. Scikit-build 0.17.3 =================== A small release related to ``PYTHON_LIBRARY`` handling changes in 0.17.2; scikit-build 0.17.3 returns an empty string from ``get_python_library`` if no Python library is present (like on manylinux), where 0.17.2 returned None, and previous versions returned a non-existent path. Note that adding ``REQUIRED`` to ``find_package(PythonLibs`` will fail, but it is incorrect (you must not link to ``libPython.so``) and was really just injecting a non-existent path before.

Bug fixes --------- * RPM spec fix by `@LecrisUT <https://github.com/LecrisUT>`_ in `#937 <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build/pull/937>`_. * Validate value before returning library path by `@dlech <https://github.com/dlech>`_ in `#942 <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build/pull/942>`_. * Only add ``Python_LIBRARY`` on Windows MSVC in `#943 <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build/pull/943>`_ and `#944 <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build/pull/944>`_. * Slightly nicer traceback for failed compiler in `#947 <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build/pull/947>`_.

Scikit-build 0.17.1 =================== This is a small release fixing a few bugs; the primary one being a change that was triggering a bug in older FindPython. The unused variable messages have been deactivated to simplify output, as well. Bug fixes --------- * Older (<3.24) CMake breaks when lib specified in `#932 <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build/pull/932>`_. * An error output was missing formatting in `#931 <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build/pull/931>`_. * Make empty ``CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET`` a warning (bug in conda-forge's clang activation fixed upstream) in `#934 <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build/pull/934>`_. * Remove unused variable warnings by in `#930 <https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build/pull/930>`_.

Scikit-build 0.17.0 =================== A lot of bug fixes are present in this release, focusing on Windows, PyPy, and cross compiling. We've also improved the compatibility with default setuptools behaviors a little, and enabled some things that w
