Prompt: Anything we should fix on main directly?

Xpress 10.0.0 (PyPI, 2026-10-29) deprecates xpress.maximize, and CI resolves it fresh, so the suite fails on main and on every open PR. The sink now uses xpress.ObjSense.MAXIMIZE, and the xpress extra requires Xpress 9.8 or later.

What fails and what changed

On main (582e5c1) with Xpress 10.0.0, pytest -k xpress gives 40 failures:

• 36 × xpress.DeprecationWarning: Deprecated in Xpress 10.0: use xpress.ObjSense.MAXIMIZE instead, from p.chgObjSense(xpress.maximize) in _sinks/xpress.py, on every maximized model. The suite runs with filterwarnings = ["error"].
• 4 × SystemError: <class 'xpress.problem'> returned a result with an exception set: Xpress 10 warns once per process (xpress.LicenseWarning) when it runs on the bundled Community licence. That is the first xpress.problem() in each test worker. Xpress 9.9.1 does not warn.

CI's suite job failed this way on #2036 at d6ddc42 (39 failed), a merge whose tree was green two days before.

Changes:

• _sinks/xpress.py: xpress.ObjSense.MAXIMIZE in place of xpress.maximize.
• pyproject.toml: the xpress extra requires >=9.8. The sink calls problem.chgObjSense, and I read the published wheels' _xpress.so: 9.6.0–9.6.3 and 9.7.0–9.7.2 export only chgobjsense; 9.8.0 is the first with chgObjSense. ObjSense itself is in xpress/enums.py from 9.6.0. So main, which already calls chgObjSense, never worked below 9.8 while its extra allowed any version. This refuses an install below 9.8, hence the !.
• pyproject.toml: the pixi workspace targets macOS 14 ([tool.pixi.system-requirements]). Every xpresslibs from 9.6.2 on ships its macOS arm64 wheel for macOS 14 or later (10.0.0 for macOS 26), and pixi's default is macOS 13. So under >=9.6, osx-arm64 solved to Xpress 9.6.0, which has no chgObjSense; under >=9.8 it found nothing, and every job that solves the workspace failed at f2eff8b. With macOS 14 it resolves 9.9.1, which I emulated with uv pip compile --python-platform aarch64-apple-darwin at MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET 13.0 (no solution) and 14.0 (9.9.1).
• pyproject.toml: the tests ignore the Community-licence warning by its message. The class cannot name the filter, because pytest imports it while it reads the configuration, and the floors and bare-install environments have no xpress. The library does not hide the warning from a caller: it is Xpress's own notice about the licence in use.
• uv.lock: regenerated with uv lock. It updates the >=9.8 specifier and removes one zensical armv7l wheel that is no longer published; the lock still pins Xpress 9.9.1.

Verified

In a uv environment synced from uv.lock (--group dev --all-extras, Python 3.12, polars 2.0.0), with Xpress swapped as named:

• pytest -q -n 4 -k xpress on main with Xpress 10.0.0: 40 failed (reproduces CI).
• pytest -q -k xpress at this head: 980 passed, 437 skipped on Xpress 10.0.0; 980 passed, 438 skipped on Xpress 9.8.0, the extra skip being the docs-toolchain test that environment does not install. Also 980 passed on Xpress 9.9.1 before the floor moved.
• pytest -q -n 4 on Xpress 10.0.0, before the floor moved (the move changes no code): 5883 passed, 458 skipped, 4 xfailed.
• pytest bench/test_harness.py (test-bench) on Xpress 10.0.0: 482 passed, 15 skipped.
• ruff check ., ruff format --check .: clean. pyrefly check on the package: 0 errors.

Not run: pixi itself (not installable in this container, so CI is the first pixi solve of the macOS 14 change), 9.6 and 9.7 at runtime (their bundled Community licence expired on 31 July 2026, so only the wheels were read), docs-build, the floors environment (it installs no Xpress), test-via-pyarrow.

Not done. The floors job does not install the xpress extra, so the >=9.8 floor stays untested in CI.

Walkthrough

The Xpress sink now sets maximize mode with xpress.ObjSense.MAXIMIZE. The optional Xpress dependency minimum is 9.8. Pixi specifies macOS 14.0, and pytest ignores the Xpress Community-license warning. The changelog records the Xpress 10 compatibility update.

• observed — Modified behavior in src/specsolve/_sinks/xpress.py: _built now passes xpress.ObjSense.MAXIMIZE to chgObjSense instead of xpress.maximize.
• observed — Modified behavior in CHANGELOG.md: The Upcoming version section adds a breaking fix entry about Xpress 10 support and the xpress extra’s minimum Xpress version of 9.8.
• observed — Modified behavior in pyproject.toml: The Xpress extra now requires xpress>=9.8 instead of xpress>=9.5; its accompanying comment describes the 9.8 chgObjSense/ObjSense requirement rather than the former read-back API.
• observed — Modified behavior in pyproject.toml: Adds Pixi system requirements specifying macOS 14.0.
