rye sync fails in CI but not locally (PyPy3)

[SichangHe]

rye sync failed in my CI:

But, when I test it locally, it works:

This is my CI file:

  push:
    paths:
      - ".github/workflows/python.yml"
      - "**.py"
jobs:
  python:
    name: Python checks

    steps:

      - uses: eifinger/setup-rye@v2
        with:
          enable-cache: true
          working-directory: rpsl_lexer/
      - run: rye sync
        working-directory: rpsl_lexer/
      - run: rye test
        working-directory: rpsl_lexer/
      - run: rye format --check
        working-directory: rpsl_lexer/

Not sure what is wrong. Any ideas?

Well, if I rye pin cpython@3.11.8 before rye sync in the CI, then it works. The problem comes from PyPy3.

Is CI using pip-tools and local using uv? Try using uv both places. Since CI mentions pip-tools, it could be the explanation.

[SichangHe]

You are right. Adding rye config --set-bool behavior.use-uv=true before rye sync makes it work.

[bluss]

Great that it works. As long as pip-tools is supported, I think a bug report on the problem would still be welcome if the problem can be reported.
