Thank you for removing the hard dependency. Note though that by running "python setup.py install" you'll only get the Python 3 bindings, even if Python 2 is installed on the system. (Unless the system has not been updated in the last couple of years such that python = python2.) Thus it should be safe to remove also the optional dependency.

Python2 is not a hard dependency. I've made it optional.

Is python2 actually a hard dependency or could it be made optional? Right now gurobi is the only thing still depending on python2 on my system, and I would like to remove it.

Update for Gurobi 8.1.1 and compatibility with Python 3.8: https://gitlab.com/uhrm-aur/gurobi

I edited the PKGBUILD for Python 3.7 and Gurobi 8.1 - https://paste.debian.net/1054587/

I just noticed due to this being flagged out of date that Gurobi 8.1 was released two weeks ago and it does claim to have Python 3.7 support. If now CPLEX follows then I can finally update my four-month-stale laptop. :-)

@lucasbrynte Gurobi does not support it (neither does CPLEX, by the way - from the three big commercial solvers, only MOSEK currently does).

The package claiming that python<3.8 is fine is actually incorrect, because even when the line with "python3.6 setup.py" is changed to just "python3 setup.py" (implying Python 3.7 on my system), then setup.py itself will raise a "RuntimeError: Unsupported Python version."

Is there any reason for holding back python<3.7?

Kindly, Lucas

There is a problem with the source stated in the PKGBUILD file. I guess its a typo?

"ERROR: Unknown download protocol: file"

Though when i provided the correct file the rest worked correctly.
