--- Comment #1 from Kubilay Kocak <ko...@freebsd.org> ---
Investigation summary:
1) ports r482774 removed USE_PYTHON=cython (inadvertently, due to (2), or
because the package successfully built without cython)
2) upstream setup.py does not declare cython as a dependency
3) upstream dev-requirements.txt does declare it as a dependency (noop for
setuptools/pip based installs as they use setup.py:*_requires)
4) upstream setup.py conditionally (when importable/found) uses Cython (.pyx
file) for the build, falling back to a setuptools build_ext (.c file) build
5) The 1.0.6 PyPI sdist (only) ships with a .c file
6) Upstream commit 5c928f14567fabc9efb8bbb8ac5e0eef03c61541 via issue #25 [1]
adds a pyx file (not yet released).
7) setup.py declares 'sdist requires cython module to generate c' file,
appearing to indicate it (cython) is a development dependency, prior to, and
for producing, the relevant source distribution (which we use).
In my opinion, a cython build (and the dependency on cython) it not necessary
(particularly given (5) and (7)), even after #25 is released and the
conditional code to build with cython should not be included in setup.py, at
least not as a default case, or without an explicit request by the user to use
cython, as an optional build method, for sdist consumers (most downstream
packagers, and setuptools/pip users)
