Thanks. My Windows build with those two PRs reverted is fine. Without
creating the installer, i.e. bdist_wininst -> bdist_egg, how should
this line in the generated README be reworded?

Ugh, it looks like eggs can't be installed the modern way with pip.
I'd personally do the following:
1. In the winsetup, add logic to install wheel from pip, similar to how
Cython is installed:
installWheel() {
local python
if findCommand python python py
then
export PYTHONIOENCODING="utf-8"
local directory="${python%/*}"
findCommand wheel wheel || {
logMessage task "installing Wheel"
"${dryRun}" || executeCommand pip -q install wheel
}
else
logWarning "Python not found"
fi
}
2. swap bdist_wininst for bdist_wheel
3. In the documentation, i'm not exactly sure about the file naming:
- Python bindings are provided by: Brlapi-${BRLAPI_RELEASE}.win32.whl
- They can be installed using pip: pip install
Brlapi-${BRLAPI_RELEASE}.win32.whl
