Only the prebuilt binaries for x86_64 platforms have the python feature enabled. This is because the binaries are prebuilt using Github's Action Runners, and currently, GitHub only has x86_64 based Linux, Windows and macOS runners. Still, thanks to Rust's cross-compilation capabilities, we are able to create binaries for non x86_64 platforms. However, enabling the python feature requires linking to the python shared libraries during compile time. This is not readily doable at the moment (doing so, requires fetching python development libraries for the other non x86_64 platforms), so for non x86_64 platforms, the python feature is disabled. If you need the python feature on non-x86_64 platforms, you can always install or build from source. |
