The ctypes on pypi is no longer maintained as it was merged by the original author Thomas Heller into python itself. This article goes over the history of it a little: https://blog.python.org/2011/04/thomas-heller-steps-down-as-ctypes.html Why do you need the pypi version to be updated? You should just be able to import ctypes in your venv and have it use the one included in the standard library.
