26.3

What's Changed

Features

• Add a public VersionRange API and SpecifierSet.to_range(), representing the versions a specifier set accepts as an interval set that supports intersection, union, difference, complement, set relations, membership tests, and filtering. VersionRange.to_specifier_set() converts a range back to a SpecifierSet where a PEP 440 form exists. (#1267, #1270, #1298)
• PEP 808: accept Metadata-Version: 2.6. (#1194)
• Add a limit argument to parse_tag() for compressed tag sets. (#1220)
• Add a prefer_sdist_predicate argument to Pylock.select() to prefer source distributions over wheels for selected packages. (#1334)
• Add pure_python_tags() to generate the pure-Python tags for a Python version without touching the running platform. (#1346)
• Add SpecifierSet.is_subset(), SpecifierSet.is_superset(), and SpecifierSet.is_disjoint(), which compare the versions two specifier sets accept. (#1313)

Behavior adaptations

• Drop support for Python 3.8; packaging now requires Python 3.9 or later. (#1157)
• Prefer native linux_* platform tags over manylinux and musllinux tags on Linux. (#160)

Fixes for versions and specifiers

• Raise InvalidVersion instead of TypeError when Version is given a non-string. (#1319)
• Raise InvalidVersion for non-string pre-release letters passed to Version.from_parts. (#1241)
• Fix an AttributeError when hashing internally trimmed versions. (#1242)
• Fix SpecifierSet.is_unsatisfiable for post-release boundary intersections. (#1257)

Fixes for requirements and markers

• Make Requirement.__hash__ consistent with __eq__ for trailing-zero-equivalent specifiers (e.g. foo==1.0.0 and foo==1.0.0.0), so equal requirements hash equal and deduplicate in sets and dicts. (#1232)
• Normalize requested extra names before comparing or hashing requirements. (#644)
• Preserve a Requirement's specifier prereleases override across a pickle round trip. (#1204)
• Raise InvalidRequirement instead of InvalidSpecifier when a requirement contains an invalid specifier. (#1332)
• Clarify the error for post-release prefix wildcards like ==1.0.post1.*. (#1299)
• Preserve quoting semantics when serializing marker values, so round-tripped markers parse back to the same marker. (#1213)
• Keep the parentheses of a nested group when serializing markers. (#1316)
• Normalize extra and dependency_groups values in nested markers at parse time. (#1246, #1310)
• Raise UndefinedComparison when a set-valued variable like extras is used outside the membership form. (#1265)
• Raise UndefinedEnvironmentName (a KeyError subclass) for missing environment keys during marker evaluation. (#1276)
• Wrap malformed string literal errors in InvalidMarker / InvalidRequirement instead of leaking a low-level error. (#1249)
• Reject requirements and markers with a trailing line break. (#1345)

Fixes for metadata and licenses

• Collect all from_email validation errors into one ExceptionGroup instead of raising the first. (#1268)
• Accept the UTF-8 charset case-insensitively in email payloads. (#1330)
• Reject malformed Description-Content-Type values. (#1329)
• Don't rewrite user values that contain {field} placeholders in error messages. (#1327)
• Route multipart email payloads to unparsed instead of asserting. (#1247)
• Make InvalidMetadata and CyclicDependencyGroup picklable. (#1328)
• Fold every line boundary str.splitlines recognizes when writing a header with RFC822Message. (#1356)

v4.13.0

https://pytest-django.readthedocs.io/en/latest/changelog.html#v4-13-0-2026-08-06

Sourced from pytest-django's changelog.

v4.13.0 (2026-08-06)

Compatibility ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

• Dropped support for Django 4.2 and 5.1.

Improvements ^^^^^^^^^^^^

• Export pytest_django.Settings from the top-level pytest_django module so the :fixture:settings fixture can be type-annotated ([#1257](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-django/issues/1257) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-django/issues/1257>__).

Bugfixes ^^^^^^^^

• Fixed type hints of assert methods to match actual signature (PR [#1271](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-django/issues/1271) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-django/pull/1271>__)
• Handled Django 6.2's ImproperlyConfigured (in addition to ImportError) when the configured DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE cannot be imported, so pytest-django still shows its guidance message.
• Fixed django_db(transaction=True) tests being set up twice, which repeated the serialized_rollback restore and the fixtures load, and sent setting_changed and post_migrate twice when available_apps is set.
• Fixed --help/--version failing with AppRegistryNotReady (surfaced as a could not load initial conftests warning) when a conftest.py imports Django models at the top level. Django is now set up even when --help/--version are passed, before the initial conftests are loaded for these options ([#1152](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-django/issues/1152) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-django/issues/1152>__).

• 6cfcfbd fixtures: explain a bit more in Settings docstring
• 3478bd7 Minor typing improvements
• faa443b Fix --help/--version when a conftest imports Django models
• fb4417f plugin: add missing type annotation for non_debugging_runtest
• f151858 Remove useless test test_change_settings to simplify (#1302)

Sourced from time-machine's changelog.

3.3.1 (2026-08-04)

• Fix small rounding errors in destination calculations.

  Previously, time-machine computed destinations in floating-point seconds, which could lead to small rounding errors: up to a few hundred nanoseconds for present-day destinations, growing to several microseconds by the year 2500. This change fixes the pipeline to use integer nanoseconds throughout, so time-travel is precise for any supported date.

v84.0.0

Features

• Newline-separated keywords and platformspypa/setuptools#4887old specification <https://peps.python.org/pep-0345/>_ separated items with spaces and the current one uses commas. (#4887)
• Extensionpypa/distutils#373#5022)
• The C compiler modules now emit log messages through their own compilers.C.* loggers instead of the distutils root logger, part of decoupling the compilers package from distutils. The logger names are normalized to a stable compilers.C.* prefix so they remain constant as the package migrates toward a standalone compilers.C distribution. (#5266)
• The C compilers gained a Compiler.call method -- a thin wrapper over subprocess.check_call (with macOS deployment-target env injection) that is the modern replacement for Compiler.spawn. The compilers no longer depend on distutils.spawn, distutils.dir_util, distutils.file_util, distutils._modified, or distutils.util.execute/split_quoted: the generic newer/newer_group and split_quoted helpers are vendored into the compilers package, and Compiler.mkpath/move_file/execute are implemented directly on the standard library (os.makedirs/shutil.move). The methods are retained for backward compatibility. (#5267)
• The compilers no longer depend on distutils.util, distutils.version, distutils.compat, or distutils._macos_compat. The platform-identification helpers (get_platform/get_host_platform/is_mingw) now live in distutils.compilers.platform.detect and the macOS deployment-target logic and compiler_fixup in distutils.compilers.platform.macos; CygwinCCompiler.gcc_version returns a packaging.version.Version. distutils.util re-exports the platform/macOS helpers from their new homes for backward compatibility rather than keeping duplicate copies. (sysconfig lookups still route through distutils pending its own decoupling.) (#5268)
• The compilers now read their build configuration from the standard library's sysconfig instead of distutils.sysconfig. Per-compiler customization -- previously distutils.sysconfig.customize_compiler -- has moved into Compiler.configure_system(): a no-op on the base class, with UnixCCompiler applying the compiler/flag/archiver settings CPython recorded in sysconfig (and the usual CC/CFLAGS/LDSHARED/… environment overrides). distutils.sysconfig.customize_compiler is retained as a thin wrapper that calls compiler.configure_system(). (#5269)

Bugfixes

• The MSVC linker now passes its arguments through a response file when the command line would exceed the Windows maximum length, fixing failures when linking a large number of objects. (#4177)
• The Cygwin and MinGW compilers now pass -O1 instead of a bare -O. The two are equivalent to GCC, but cc1 rejected the bare form when building 32-bit extensions with -m32. -- by :user:dchaudhari7177 (#4873)
• copy_filepypa/distutils#379#5079)
• Setuptools wheels no longer bundled the project's own test modules. -- by :user:itscloud0 (#5212)
• build_ext no longer fails when cross-compiling with a compiler other than MSVC (such as MinGW). Compiler now provides a no-op initialize()pypa/distutils#399

Improved Documentation

• Clarified what "correspond exactly to the directory structure" means in the packages section of the Package Discovery user guide. (#4109)
• Documented how bdist_wheel's py_limited_api option controls abi3 wheel tagging for extension modules -- by :user:Himanshuagrawal4 (#4741)

Deprecations and Removals

• Compiler.spawn is deprecated in favor of the new Compiler.call. call raises native subprocess exceptions; spawn remains as a shim that emits a DeprecationWarning and translates them to DistutilsExecError. The MSVC spawn compatibility shim for third-party monkeypatches predating the env argument (numpy.distutils before 1.19, per pypa/distutils#15) has been removed. distutils.spawn.spawn is likewise reduced to a thin wrapper around subprocess.check_call: it no longer resolves cmd[0] via shutil.which (subprocess searches PATH itself) nor injects MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET (that now lives with the compilers, the only callers to which it applied). (#5267)
• Building an extension with a MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET lower than the interpreter's configured value now raises compilers.errors.PlatformError instead of distutils.errors.DistutilsPlatformError (the macOS deployment-target check moved into the compilers package). CygwinCCompiler.gcc_version returns a packaging.version.Version rather than the removed distutils.version.LooseVersion. Completing the transition begun in pypa/distutils#246, UnixCCompiler.runtime_library_dir_option now returns the ["-Wl,--enable-new-dtags", "-Wl,-rpath,<dir>"] list directly for GNU ld rather than collapsing it into a single string, and the temporary distutils.compat.consolidate_linker_args shim has been removed. (#5268)
• The compilers now define their own exception vocabulary instead of borrowing distutils' framework errors. Language-agnostic exceptions (Error, UnknownFileType, and a new PlatformError) live at distutils.compilers.errors, leaving room for future compilers.<language> siblings; the C/C++-specific CompileError/LinkError/LibError/PreprocessError remain in distutils.compilers.C.errors. The compilers now raise compilers.errors.PlatformError where they previously raised distutils.errors.DistutilsPlatformError/DistutilsModuleError, and compilers._modified.newer raises the stdlib FileNotFoundError. distutils.errors keeps its own framework exceptions and re-exports the compiler ones (CCompilerError, CompileError, etc.) for backward compatibility; because CCompilerError is compilers.errors.Error, code catching it (as distutils' top-level handlers do) still catches the new PlatformError. (#5270)
• customize_compiler now asserts that the compiler-related config variables (CC, CXX, CFLAGS, etc.) resolve to strings, raising AssertionError if any are unexpectedly Nonepypa/distutils#363
