In a very quick bit of research, it' seems the modern equivalent
would be something like 'python -m build --wheel', but we don't seem
to have a python-build package?
The other alternative seems to be 'pip wheel'
Attached is a cygport patch which uses that for the setup.py-less case.
(possibly we could use it in all cases, but I'm being conservative
with this change)
I'm not very familiar with the evolving state of python packaging, so
I think I may need a bit of help getting this right!
Hi Jon,
definitely you did not need a help - I did a test on python-fasteners

Well, I'm not quite so confident. Just because it works for one module,
doesn't mean I've got it right.
But this change seems pretty low-impact since it should only change the
behaviour for setup.py-less modules, which can't build at all presently,
so I included it in cygport 0.35.5
Success :)
So I confirm it works at least for this one use case.
Thanks for testing.
