Description

Required prerequisites
What version (or hash if on master) of pybind11 are you using?

latest @ Git HEAD

Problem description

I'm not able to install from source on Rocky Linux 8; the cmake fails to build from the source with errors that are not meaningful to me.

Unfortunately not able to find any Python3.11-pybind11 YUM packages for Rocky Linux 8. This is a blocker for moving forward on few projects where PyBind11 dependency is critical.

Please advise.

Research direction

Reproduce the source installation with the latest Git HEAD on Rocky Linux 8 using CMake and Python 3.11. Start by capturing the complete CMake failure output, since the issue provides no reproducible example or specific error; done means identifying a project-side cause and confirming a successful installation or documenting the unsupported prerequisite.
