Release notes

This information is drawn from the GitHub conda project changelog: https://github.com/conda/conda-build/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md

3.25.0 (2023-05-22)

Enhancements

Noarch packages that use virtual packages have the virtual packages added to the hash contents of the package. This facilitates the building of noarch packages multiple times for different platforms with platform specific dependencies. (#4606)
Add support for svn source credentials (svn_username and svn_password). (#4692)
Depend on standalone conda-index instead of bundled indexing code. (#4828)
Switch from setup.py to pyproject.toml and use Hatchling for our build system. (#4840)
Add Python 3.11 support. (#4852)

Bug fixes

Ensure tests/commands are also run in the presence of run_test.* (#4429)
Require the source when rendering a recipe that uses the load_file_data function. (#4817)
Download packages during build into the correct subdir folder. (#4832)
Use a unique subdir variable name when rebuilding the index for multi-output builds. (#4862)

Deprecations

Inline conda index logic is pending deprecation. conda-build still provides conda-index a.k.a. conda index CLI, but uses standalone conda-index during builds. (#4828)
Prefer the standalone conda-index package, instead of conda-build index or conda index, to use faster indexing code. (#4828)
Mark conda_build.metadata.ns_cfg as pending deprecation. Use conda_build.get_selectors.get_selectors instead. (#4837)
Mark conda_build.config.python2_fs_encode as pending deprecation. (#4843)
Mark conda_build.config._ensure_dir as pending deprecation. Use stdlib’s pathlib.Path.mkdir(exist_ok=True) or os.makedirs(exist_ok=True) instead. (#4843)

Other

Format with black and replaced pre-commit’s darker hook with black. (#4836)
Format with isort and add pre-commit isort hook. (#4836)
Minor code simplification for conda_build.index.ChannelIndex._ensuredirs. (#4843)
Enable xattr test on macOS. (#4845)

3.23.0 (2022-11-15)

Enhancements

Outputs now support both script and files arguments. When both script and an explicit file list are given, the script is run first and then the files given in the explicit file list are packaged. (#4281)

Alternative solutions (see #4628) are under investigation, so the current implementation will likely change. (#4604, #4625)
Refactored conda_build.convert.update_lib_contents to use pathlib.Path. Mark test_cli.test_convert as xfail on Windows (something with the GitHub Windows Runner makes this particularly flaky). (#4619, #4626)

Removed internal usage of the memoized decorator. (#4593, #4615)
Remove py2 compatibility code and use of six.py code exported from conda. (#4603)
conda_build.environ.system_vars is marked as pending deprecation. Use conda_build.environ.os_vars instead. (#4615)
Conda 4.2 introduced a private conda env that appears to have been a testing environment. This is no longer used and is only included in conda-build as an informational status. Removing in accordance with the feature pending deprecation starting with conda 22.11.0. (#4629)

Docs

Add s390x selector missing from docs. (#4550)
Update “Channels and generating an index” docs to specify additional platforms. (#4602)

Enhancements

Speed up package inspection by optimizing package file lookup #2535
Simplify hashing scheme. A hash will be added if all of these are true for any dependency:
package is an explicit dependency in build, host, or run deps
package has a matching entry in conda_build_config.yaml which is a pin to a specific version, not a lower bound
that package is not ignored by ignore_version OR
package uses {{ compiler() }} jinja2 function All other packages will no longer have hashes. The takeaway message is that hashes will appear when binary compatibility matters, but not when it doesn’t. #2537

Known issues

Environment activation requires conda >=4.1.6. The activate.bat script does not look in the right place for the activate.d folder.
The test suite on Linux and Mac fails the python-build, python-run, and python-build-run tests, because an errant __conda-version__.txt file is somehow present. It is not clear where it comes from, and each of these tests pass when run individually. If you have mysterious issues, and you use __conda-version__.txt or files like it, please file an issue.

Environment activation on Windows will not work until Conda 4.1.4 is released. The activate.bat script does not look in the right place for the activate.d folder.
The test suite on Linux and Mac fails the python-build, python-run, and python-build-run tests, because an errant __conda-version__.txt file is somehow present.

fix regression in [] being confused for selectors (#957)

1.20.2 (2016-05-13)

Enhancements

added --token and --user flags to pass corresponding information to anaconda upload (#921)
added conda render command that outputs a fully-rendered meta.yaml to either stdout, or to file (with --file) (#908)

fn is now optional when a URL specifies a filename. (#942)
CRAN skeleton generator now uses MSYS2 for Windows support (#942)
conda build & conda render both recursively look for meta.yaml (support conda-forge feedstock submodules) (#908)
Whitelist MAKEFLAGS environment variable. Setting this outside conda build should take effect in your build. Parallelize on *nix by adding -j here, instead of -j${CPU_COUNT} in your build.sh. This helps on CI’s, where CPU_COUNT is not always well-behaved. (#917)
Run python_d executable on windows when debug feature is active (#724)
add conda build flag --keep-old-work that temporarily moves your last build, then moves it back after completion. For debugging, when more than one package is involved. (#833)
Allow selectors in imported jinja templates (#739)

Fix invalid gcc “-m 32” flag (#916)
Fix empty section (due to selectors) handling regression (#919)
Fix regression in handling of VS2008 Pro (not Express + VC for Python 2.7). It is important to at least try to run vcvarsall.bat. (#913)
Fix CPAN skeleton generator (handle missing sections better) (#912)
Make test/requires versions match build/requires without additional pinning (#907)
Remove hard-coded CYGWIN path from conda-build’s custom PATH (#903)
Source is downloaded before testing, fixing an issue where if build machine and some other test machine had different source, strange things happened. (#946)
Fix regression with Python 3.x fixing shebangs (#892)
Fix conda inspect crashes by using conda-meta info rather than filenames or dist names for package info (#947)
