+1 (binding), i run the verification on my env

Thanks @ysh329 , some minor comment on the code. seems the internal file only contains the non-rc suffix, here are the changes i made to make. Still seems the compile might stop, would be worthwhile to cross check the test script. But it is very helpful. I run the final compile and import manually

❯ diff tests/scripts/release/test_release_package.sh ~/github/release/test_release_package.sh

< version="v0.16.0"
---
> version="v0.20.0"

Checked: compilation and Python import

fyi I use this snippet to compile and install python package. It requires uv from astra.

# assume you are in the root of the tvm source directory
uv venv
source .venv/bin/activate
uv pip install cmake ninja cython setuptools
cmake -S . -B build -G Ninja
cmake --build build
uv pip install python/
