Trouble with pythonnet on docker/linux

Environment

• Pythonnet version: 3.0.0-dev1 & 2.5.1
• Python version: 3.8
• Operating System: Ubuntu 20.04
• .NET Runtime: 5

Details

• Describe what you were trying to get done.

I am trying to run pythonnet via docker. The only requirements is executing a set of pytest tests from C# as well as possibly other python functions directly from C# code.

• What commands did you run to trigger this issue? If you can provide a

Dockerfile:

FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:5.0-focal-amd64 AS build

ENV DEBIAN_FRONTEND noninteractive

RUN : \
    && apt-get update \
    && DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \
        python3 python3-pip python3-dev python3-venv

RUN git clone https://github.com/pythonnet/pythonnet
WORKDIR /pythonnet
RUN python3 setup.py build_dotnet --inplace

RUN python3 -m pip install pytest

WORKDIR /source
COPY ./PyTestSelenium/ /pythonCode/

COPY *.csproj .
RUN dotnet restore

COPY . .
RUN dotnet run 

C# code

PythonEngine.Initialize();
         
var pyLock = PythonEngine.AcquireLock();
PythonEngine.ImportModule("pytest");
PythonEngine.ReleaseLock(pyLock);

Riproduci il problema con il Dockerfile e il punto di ingresso C# forniti, quindi parti da PythonEngine.ImportModule in pythonengine.cs:493 e dal sito di chiamata in PythonXunitTests.cs:119. Usa il traceback per esaminare l’importazione di _contextvars di Python 3.8; il lavoro è completo quando pytest viene importato correttamente senza l’errore undefined PyContextVar_Type.
