Sourced from rules_python's changelog.

1.9.0 - 2026-02-21

{#v1-9-0-removed}

Removed

• Nothing removed.

{#v1-9-0-changed}

Changed

• DEPRECATED: implicit zipapp support
  • Implicit zipapp output of py_binary/py_test has been deprecated and replaced by separate {obj}py_zipapp_binary and {obj}py_zipapp_test rules. See #3567 for a detailed migration guide.
• (toolchains) stop exposing config settings in python toolchain alias repos. Please consider depending on the flags defined in //python/config_setting/... and the @platforms package instead.
• (binaries/tests) The PYTHONBREAKPOINT environment variable is automatically inherited
• (binaries/tests) The {obj}stamp attribute now transitions the Bazel builtin {flag}--stamp flag.
• (pypi) Now the RECORD file patches will follow the quoted or unquoted filenames convention in order to make pytorch and friends easier to patch.
• (wheel) py_wheel no longer expands the input depset during analysis, improving analysis performance for targets with large dependency trees.
• (binaries/tests) (Windows) --enable_runfiles=true is the default for py_binary/py_test. Prior behavior can be restored by adding @rules_python//command_line_option:enable_runfiles=false or @rules_python//command_line_option:enable_runfiles=INHERIT to the config_settings attribute. NOTE: enable_runfiles=true will soon become required for Windows.

{#v1-9-0-fixed}

Fixed

• (tests) No more coverage warnings are being printed if there are no sources. (#2762)
• (gazelle) Ancestor conftest.py files are added in addition to sibling conftest.py. (#3497) Note that this behavior can be reverted to the pre-1.9.0 behavior by setting the new python_include_ancestor_conftest directive to false.
• (binaries/tests) Stamped build data generated by Windows actions is readable

{#v1-9-0-added}

Added

• (binaries/tests) {obj}--debugger: allows specifying an extra dependency to add to binaries/tests for custom debuggers.
• (binaries/tests) Build information is now included in binaries and tests. Use the bazel_binary_info module to access it. The {flag}--stamp flag will add {obj}--workspace_status_command information.
