## Summary
This is attempting to solve the same problem surfaced in #11208 and
#11209. However, those PRs only worked for our own managed Pythons. In
Gentoo, for example, they disable the managed Pythons, which led to
failures in the test suite, because the "base Python" returned after
creating a virtual environment would differ from the "base Python" that
you get after _querying_ an existing virtual environment.
The fix here is to apply our same base Python normalization and
discovery logic, to non-standalone / non-managed Pythons. We continue to
use `sys._base_executable` for such Pythons when creating the
virtualenv, but when _caching_, we perform this second discovery step.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/11237.
## Summary
I'm not sure that this has much of an effect in practice, but currently,
when we return a virtual environment, the `sys_base_executable ` of the
parent ends up being retained as `sys_base_executable` of the created
environment. But these can be, like, subtly different? If you have a
symlink to a Python, then for the symlink, `sys_base_executable` will be
equal to `sys_executable`. But when you create a virtual environment for
that interpreter, we'll set `home` to the resolved symlink, and so
`sys_base_executable` will be the resolved symlink too, in general.
Anyway, this means that we should now have a consistent value between
(1) returning `Virtualenv` from the creation routine and (2) querying
the created interpreter.
## Summary
It turns out that we were returning slightly different interpreter paths
on repeated `uv run --with` commands. This likely didn't affect many (or
any?) users, but it does affect our test suite, since in the test suite,
we use a symlinked interpreter.
The issue is that on first invocation, we create the virtual
environment, and that returns the path to the `python` executable in the
environment. On second invocation, we return the `python3` executable,
since that gets priority during discovery. This on its own is
potentially ok. The issue is that these resolve to different
`sys._base_executable` values in these flows... The latter gets the
correct value (since it's read from the `home` key), but the former gets
the incorrect value (since it's just the `base_executable` of the
executable that created the virtualenv, which is the symlink).
We now use the same logic to determine the "cached interpreter" as in
virtual environment creation, to ensure consistency between those paths.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/11214
Special-cases the first Python executable we find on the `PATH`,
allowing it to be considered during searches for virtual environments.
For some context, there are two stages to Python interpreter discovery
1. We find possible Python executables in various sources
2. We query the executables to determine canonical metadata about the
interpreter
We can't really be "sure" if an executable is a complaint virtual
environment during (1), we need to query the interpreter first. This
means that if you're only allowed to installed into virtual
environments, we'll query every interpreter on your PATH. This is not
performant, and causes confusion for users. Notably, I recently improved
error messaging when we can't find any valid interpreters, by showing
the error message we encounter while querying an interpreter (if any).
However, this is problematic when there's an error for an interpreter
that is not relevant to your search. In
https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/pull/11143, I added filtering to avoid
querying additional interpreters, but that regressed some user
experiences where they were relying on us finding implicitly active
virtual environments via the PATH.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/11048
This brings the `PythonEnvironment::from_root` behavior in-line with the
rest of uv Python discovery behavior (and in-line with pip). It's not
clear why we were canonicalizing the path in the first place here.
## Summary
In preview mode on windows, register und un-register the managed python build standalone installations in the Windows registry following PEP 514.
We write the values defined in the PEP plus the download URL and hash. We add an entry when installing a version, remove an entry when uninstalling and removing all values when uninstalling with `--all`. We update entries only by overwriting existing values, there is no "syncing" involved.
Since they are not official builds, pbs gets a prefix. `py -V:Astral/CPython3.13.1` works, `py -3.13` doesn't.
```
$ py --list-paths
-V:3.12 * C:\Users\Konsti\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312\python.exe
-V:3.11.9 C:\Users\Konsti\.pyenv\pyenv-win\versions\3.11.9\python.exe
-V:3.11 C:\Users\micro\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311\python.exe
-V:3.8 C:\Users\micro\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38\python.exe
-V:Astral/CPython3.13.1 C:\Users\Konsti\AppData\Roaming\uv\data\python\cpython-3.13.1-windows-x86_64-none\python.exe
```
Registry errors are reported but not fatal, except for operations on the company key since it's not bound to any specific python interpreter.
On uninstallation, we prune registry entries that have no matching Python installation (i.e. broken entries).
The code uses the official `windows_registry` crate of the `winreg` crate.
Best reviewed commit-by-commit.
## Test Plan
We're reusing an existing system check to test different (un)installation scenarios.
Previously, these errors would only be visible in the debug logs as
"Skipping bad interpreter ..." which can lead us to making some
ridiculous claims like "There is no virtual environment" or "Python is
not installed" when really we just failed to query the interpreter for
some reason.
We show the first error, sort of arbitrarily — but I think it matches
user expectation, i.e., this would be the first Python on your PATH.
Related to #10713
See https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/4204 for motivation
This doesn't really reach the user experience I'd expect — i.e., we end
up saying a virtual environment "does not exist" which is a little
silly. However, I think improving the error messaging on interpreter
queries in general should be solved separately. I did one small
"general" change in
89e11d0222
— otherwise we don't show the message at all.

## Summary
For example, `cargo run python install
cpython-3.12.8-linux-x86_64_v3-gnu` (on macOS) shouldn't attempt to
patch the dylib. At present, it leads to this warning:
```
warning: Failed to patch the install name of the dynamic library for /Users/crmarsh/.local/share/uv/python/cpython-3.12.8-linux-x86_64_v3-gnu/bin/python3.12. This may cause issues when building Python native extensions.
Underlying error: Failed to update the install name of the Python dynamic library located at `/Users/crmarsh/.local/share/uv/python/cpython-3.12.8-linux-x86_64_v3-gnu/lib/libpython3.12.dylib`
```
## Summary
Fixes#10598
## Test Plan
Looking for input here @zanieb. How/where would you include tests for
this?
More broadly: do we want a failure to perform the rename to be a hard
error? Or should it start out as a warning?

## Summary
This PR extends the thinking in #10525 to platform tags, and then uses
the structured tag enums everywhere, rather than passing around strings.
I think this is a big improvement! It means we're no longer doing ad hoc
tag parsing all over the place.
## Summary
Allows uv to recognize the ARMv5TE platform. This platform is currently
supported on Debian distributions. It is an older 32 bit platform mostly
used in embedded devices, currently in rust tier 2.5 so it requires
cross compilation.
Fixes#10157 .
## Test Plan
Tested directly on device by applying a slightly different patch to tag
0.5.4 which is used by the current Home Assistant version (2024.12.5).
After the patch Home Assistant is able to recognize the Python venv and
setup its dependencies.
Patched uv was built with
```
$ CARGO_TARGET_ARMV5TE_UNKNOWN_LINUX_GNUEABI_LINKER="/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc" maturin build --release --target armv5te-unknown-linux-gnueabi --manylinux off
```
The target wheel was then moved on the device and installed via pip
install.
## Summary
We had a bug in our handling of escape sequences that caused us to
duplicate backslashes. If you installed repeatedly, we'd keep doubling
them, leading to an exponential blowup.
Closes#10060.
When using a 32-bit OS on 64-bit host, almost all Python std methods
will report a 64-bit aarch64, but we most not install 64-bit executables
since Python is actually 32-bit, identifiable through
`struct.calcsize("P") == 4`.
Porting
4dc334c86d/src/packaging/tags.py (L539-L543)
to uv.
Tested on a raspberry pi 4 with a 64-bit host raspbian and `docker run
-it --rm -v arm32v7/ubuntu` as 32-bit "host".
Fixes#9842
## Summary
This PR makes the behavior in https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/pull/9827
the default: we try to select the latest supported package version for
each supported Python version, but we still optimize for choosing fewer
versions when stratifying by platform.
However, you can opt out with `--fork-strategy fewest`.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/7190.
## Summary
This PR reimplements
[`sysconfigpatcher`](https://github.com/bluss/sysconfigpatcher) in Rust
and applies it to our Python installations at install-time, ensuring
that the `sysconfig` data is more likely to be correct.
For now, we only rewrite prefixes (i.e., any path that starts with
`/install` gets rewritten to the correct absolute path for the current
machine).
Unlike `sysconfigpatcher`, this PR does not yet do any of the following:
- Patch `pkginfo` files.
- Change `clang` references to `cc`.
A few things that we should do as follow-ups, in my opinion:
1. Rewrite
[`AR`](c1ebf8ab92/src/sysconfigpatcher.py (L61)).
2. Remove `-isysroot`, which we already do for newer builds.
