PSA: PySimpleGUI has deleted [almost] all old LGPL versions from PyPI; update your dependencies
I have been a vocal proponent of this package in the past. Not any longer. It’s a pretty crappy way to run an open source project. More on reddit.com

r/Python on Reddit: PSA: PySimpleGUI has deleted [almost] all old LGPL versions from PyPI; update your dependencies
June 5, 2024 -

Months ago, PySimpleGUI relicensed from LGPL3 to a proprietary license/subscription model with the release of version 5 and nuked the source code and history from GitHub. Up until recently, the old versions of PySimpleGUI remained on PyPI. However, all but two of these have been deleted and those that remain are yanked.

The important effect this has had is anyone who may have defined their requirements as something like PySimpleGUI<5 or PySimpleGUI==4.x.x for a now-deleted version, your installations will fail with a message like:

ERROR: No matching distribution found for pysimplegui<5

If you have no specific version requested for PySimpleGUI you will end up installing the version with a proprietary license and nagware.

There are three options to deal with this without compeltely changing your code:

  1. Specify the latest yanked, but now unsupported version of PySimpleGUI PySimpleGUI==4.60.5 and hope they don't delete that some time in the future Edit: these versions have now also been deleted.

  2. Use the supported LGPL fork, FreeSimpleGUI (full disclosure, I maintain this fork)

  3. Pay up for a PySimpleGUI 5 license.

Edit: On or about July 1 2024, the authors of PySimpleGUI have furthered their scorched earth campaign against its user base and completely removed all LGPL versions from PyPI.

Everything was switched over to using PySimpleGUI 5. The documentation is PySimpleGUI5 specific as well. So, I made a decision a couple of days ago to get the project into a state where it's at least usable and hopefully even useful. A first step was to put version 4.60.5 up on PyPI.
