Hi!

When compiling and running python-rapidjson 1.23 on Alpine Linux with Python 3.14 like this…

FROM python:3.14-alpine
RUN apk add --update g++ gcc
RUN pip3 install --no-binary ':all:' python-rapidjson
RUN python3 -c 'import rapidjson'

…I started seeing this crash…

# docker build .
[..]
Step 4/4 : RUN python3 -c 'import rapidjson'
 ---> Running in 353d8abd0d9e
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
    import rapidjson
ImportError: Error relocating /usr/local/lib/python3.14/site-packages/rapidjson.cpython-314-x86_64-linux-musl.so: _ZNSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEE9_M_createERmm: symbol not found
[..]

…first around four days ago.

Is that known? Any ideas for a fix or workaround?

   I'm sorry, but I have no idea, I never used Alpine nor musl.

   But just to be clear: do you mean it worked at some time, and recently it started to crash? Because that suggests that something else changed and is causing the pain, I don't know, the gcc version maybe?

   Hello @lelit, thanks for your reply! Yes it did work just a few days ago, and when Googling for the related symbol I find other things Alpine but nothing that I recognized as a solution or explanation, but I may have overlooked something. I understand that it's unlikely to be rapidjson's fault. How should we best continue here? I'm good with this sitting here for a bit or to be closed, as you see fits best. What do you think?

   No problem for me to leave it open: only I'm afraid I can be of little help 😭
