Hi! While rebuilding the python related packages against the Python 3.15rc1 version we found that rdkit fails to build from source [1], now because it fails to detect a newer eigen3. Upstream commit d8ce92b61ce356bc2764e13f0d4b9a5df48094c5 [2] improved handling of finding eigen and solves the problem. After applying this fix, I found that it also fails on arm64 architecture [3], due to a different reason. This one can be fixed with upstream commit fab08afd7000ac6000358a7c79e95cc1940e1c39 [4] test: increase DistGeomHelpers compareConfs tolerance to 0.1 Please consider applying these patches as well as the one reported on #1146588, to get rdkit to build successfully.
