ruamel.yaml.clibz

ruamel.yaml.clibz is a C based reader/scanner and emitter for ruamel.yaml based on the same sources as ruamel.yaml.clib, but compiled using Zig (with the packages setuptools-zig and ziglang).

The intention is to only distribute this package as .tar.gz, allowing for optimised compilation according to your machine's specific architecture and capabilities, instead of some (low performance) common denominator.

Please do not create binary distributions of this package (.whl nor packages for specific Linux installers).

This package was split of from ruamel.yaml, so that ruamel.yaml can be build as a universal wheel. Apart from the C code seldom changing, and taking a long time to compile for all platforms, this allows installation of the .so on Linux systems under /usr/lib64/pythonX.Y (without a .pth file or a ruamel directory) and the Python code for ruamel.yaml under /usr/lib/pythonX.Y. Using Zig as the toolchain, installed using the ziglang package, no (other) development environment installations should be necessary.

This release in loving memory of Johanna Clasina van der Neut-Bandel [1922-10-19 – 2015-11-21] and Jan van der Neut [1919-12-01 – 1998-11-19].

Klaus E. [1938-04-25 – 2025-11-01], thanx for your help and trust, I do miss "Und was macht Coco?".
