installing pybigtools fails due to inability to compile ring v0.17.8

Hi,

This is probably a third party issue but I figured maybe you have a simpler solution for this here. I am currently trying to install pybigtools v0.1.2 (as required by another package) with Python version 3.11 but fail to do so as the maturin command fails at compiling ring v0.17.8. I am not familiar with Rust and it's ecosystem so I am kinda out of ideas here. I already tried to build ring from source but this also failed with a similar error. Did you experience something similar before? Could you maybe tell me what I need to do in order to get this to run?

Thanks in advance

Unless you have a very uncommon architecture, you should be able to install pybigtools from a binary wheel:

Thanks for the reply and the suggestion. After a day of troubleshooting and googling I think that this resulted from an incompatibility of openssl versions between Rust and Python > 3.11.x (not really sure though as I did not dig too deep here). In the end I downgraded the Python 3.11.10 I was using before to 3.11.0 and everything compiled as expected so everything good now. Main message: Looks like incompatibilities between some Python 3.11 requirements and Rust which is solved by simply using 3.11.0 (at least when installing with conda)
