llm 0.32.1
Simon Willison announced the release of llm 0.32.1 on August 21, 2026. The release addresses a recent breakage where fresh installs of LLM stopped working. The root cause was that the OpenAI Python library removed its usage of httpx, and LLM had depended on that library but only installed it as a transitive dependency of openai. To resolve this immediately, the dot-release pins the openai dependency to openai<3. Additionally, Willison notes that a soon-to-drop 0.33 release will switch from httpx to httpx2, indicating a more permanent solution. The post is tagged with httpx, openai, and llm, and includes a sponsor mention for Teleport.
// why it matters
This fix restores functionality for fresh LLM installs, preventing a broken setup experience for new users.
