+"""Detect the manylinux platform tag for a wheel and rename it in place.
+
+vLLM's build images produce wheels with the generic ``linux_<arch>`` platform
+tag, which installers like ``pip`` won't accept off PyPI/our index. We need to
+rewrite the platform tag to the appropriate ``manylinux_<major>_<minor>_<arch>``
+before uploading.
+
+Historically the tag was hard-coded per build (``manylinux_2_31`` for the
+Ubuntu 20.04-based image, ``manylinux_2_35`` for the Ubuntu 22.04-based
+images). That is brittle: bumping the base image silently produces wheels
+labelled with the wrong glibc requirement. This script asks ``auditwheel``
+to derive the tag from the symbol versions actually referenced by the
+binaries inside the wheel, so the label tracks reality.
+
+We can't simply call ``auditwheel repair`` -- it tries to graft external
+shared libraries into the wheel and fails on vLLM's CUDA/cuBLAS dependencies.
+Instead we use ``auditwheel.wheel_abi.analyze_wheel_abi`` directly, which is
+the same call that powers ``auditwheel show``, and read off
+``winfo.sym_policy.name``.
+
+Usage:
+    detect-manylinux-tag.py <wheel_path>
+
+The wheel is renamed in place; the new path is printed on stdout. All
+diagnostics go to stderr so callers can capture stdout safely.

+# Shared helper for rewriting a wheel's platform tag from the generic
+# ``linux_<arch>`` to the correct ``manylinux_<major>_<minor>_<arch>``.
+# After sourcing, call ``apply_manylinux_tag <wheel>`` on each wheel
+# that still carries the generic tag; the renamed path is printed on
+# stdout (logs go to stderr).
+#
+# Why a pinned Docker container instead of using whatever Python
+# happens to be on the agent:
+#   - vLLM's release agents are heterogeneous -- they don't agree on
+#     a Python minor version, and we can't rely on a particular
+#     ``auditwheel`` being installed.
+#   - ``detect-manylinux-tag.py`` reads ``auditwheel.wheel_abi`` and
+#     ``Policy.sym_policy``, which are *internal* APIs without a
+#     stability promise. Pinning both Python and auditwheel makes the
+#     detected tag a function of the inputs alone, and shifts version
+#     bumps from "implicit drift" to "deliberate, retested change".
+#   - Other release scripts (``generate-and-upload-nightly-index.sh``,
+#     ``upload-rocm-wheels.sh``) already use the python:3-slim image
+#     when the agent's interpreter is too old; this is the same idea
+#     made stricter.
+#
+# To keep the per-wheel cost down (the ROCm upload retags ~10 wheels
+# each run), we install auditwheel into a long-lived helper container
+# once on source, then ``docker exec`` into it for each call.
+#
+# Trap behaviour:
+# - Sourcing installs an EXIT trap that calls ``manylinux_cleanup`` to
+#   tear down the helper container. Any EXIT trap that was already in
+#   place when this file was sourced is captured and run AFTER our
+#   cleanup, so we don't silently clobber it.
+# - If a caller sets a new EXIT trap *after* sourcing, that trap will
+#   replace ours; in that case the caller should call
+#   ``manylinux_cleanup`` from their own handler.
