* **BREAKING** `py_library` no longer puts its source files or generated pyc

files in runfiles; it's the responsibility of consumers (e.g. binaries) to

{obj}`--@rules_python//python/config_settings:exec_tools_toolchain=disabled`.

* (deps) stardoc 0.6.2 added as dependency.

* (bzlmod) The `python.override(minor_mapping)` now merges the default and the

overridden versions ensuring that the resultant `minor_mapping` will always

outside of the `//:BUILD.bazel` file.

Fixes [#2299](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/issues/2299).

* (py_wheel) Now supports `compress = (True|False)` to allow disabling

compression to speed up development.

* (precompiling) {obj}`--precompile_add_to_runfiles` has been removed.

* (precompiling) {obj}`--pyc_collection` has been removed. The `pyc_collection`

attribute now bases its default on {obj}`--precompile`.

* (precompiling) The {obj}`precompile=if_generated_source` value has been removed.

* (precompiling) The {obj}`precompile_source_retention=omit_if_generated_source` value has been removed.

[0.36.0]: https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/releases/tag/0.36.0

* (gazelle): Update error messages when unable to resolve a dependency to be more human-friendly.

* (flags) The {obj}`--python_version` flag now also returns

available.

* (bazel) Minimum bazel 7 version that we test against has been bumped to `7.1`.

* (whl_library): Remove `--no-index` and add `--no-build-isolation` to the

`pip install` command when installing a wheel from a local file, which happens

* (toolchain) The {bzl:obj}`gen_python_config_settings` has been fixed to include

the flag_values from the platform definitions.

* (bzlmod): Toolchain overrides can now be done using the new

{bzl:obj}`python.override`, {bzl:obj}`python.single_version_override` and

* (toolchains) Added `//python:none`, a special target for use with

{obj}`py_exec_tools_toolchain.exec_interpreter` to treat the value as `None`.

* (toolchains): Removed accidentally exposed `http_archive` symbol from

`python/repositories.bzl`.

* (toolchains): An internal _is_python_config_setting_ macro has been removed.

[0.35.0]: https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/releases/tag/0.35.0

* (whl_library) A better log message when the wheel is built from an sdist or

when the wheel is downloaded using `download_only` feature to aid debugging.

([#2060](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/issues/2060)).

* (rules) `compile_pip_requirements` now sets the `USERPROFILE` env variable on

Windows to work around an issue where `setuptools` fails to locate the user's

in the same directory as the main file.

Fixes [#1631](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/issues/1631).

* (rules) `compile_pip_requirements` supports multiple requirements input files as `srcs`.

* (rules) `PYTHONSAFEPATH` is inherited from the calling environment to allow

* `protobuf`/`com_google_protobuf` dependency bumped to `v24.4`

* (bzlmod): optimize the creation of config settings used in pip to

replaced by {obj}`//python/runtime_env_toolchains:all`. The old target will be

removed in a future release.

* (bzlmod): When using `experimental_index_url` the `all_requirements`,

`all_whl_requirements` and `all_data_requirements` will now only include

* (rules) The first element of the default outputs is now the executable again.

* (pip) Fixed crash when pypi packages lacked a sha (e.g. yanked packages)

* (toolchains) {obj}`//python/runtime_env_toolchains:all`, which is a drop-in

replacement for the "autodetecting" toolchain.

* (gazelle) Added new `python_label_convention` and `python_label_normalization` directives. These directive

allows altering default Gazelle label format to third-party dependencies useful for re-using Gazelle plugin

with other rules, including `rules_pycross`. See [#1939](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/issues/1939).

* (pip): Removes the `entrypoint` macro that was replaced by `py_console_script_binary` in 0.26.0.

[0.33.2]: https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/releases/tag/0.33.2

* (toolchains) The {obj}`exec_tools_toolchain_type` is disabled by default.

To enable it, set {obj}`--//python/config_settings:exec_tools_toolchain=enabled`.

This toolchain must be enabled for precompilation to work. This toolchain will

be enabled by default in a future release.

Fixes [#1967](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/issues/1967).

[0.33.1]: https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/releases/tag/0.33.1

* (py_binary) Fix building of zip file when using `--build_python_zip`

argument. Fixes [#1954](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/issues/1954).

[0.33.0]: https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/releases/tag/0.33.0

* (deps) Upgrade the `pip_install` dependencies to pick up a new version of pip.

* (toolchains) Optional toolchain dependency: `py_binary`, `py_test`, and

`python_{version}_host` keys if you would like to have access to a Python

interpreter that can be used in a repository rule context.

* (gazelle) Remove `visibility` from `NonEmptyAttr`.

Now empty(have no `deps/main/srcs/imports` attr) `py_library/test/binary` rules will

* (doc) Fix the `WORKSPACE` requirement vendoring example. Fixes

[#1918](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/issues/1918).
