-# create directory before installing (otherwise installing fails)
+# WARNING! If you get an error along the lines of
+# "error: cannot copy tree 'build/scripts-3.11': not a directory", STOP!

+# You might be tempted, but do *NOT* `mkdir build/scripts-3.XX`.
+#
+# This happens because upstream is using the git repo which doesn't have the metadata.
+# It doesn't affect upstream because their setuptools already has a directory .egg-info,
+# whereas if we have an .egg-info file, then it will result in "error: invalid command 'egg_info'"
+# when trying to build any python package that uses setuptools.
+#
+# That said, let's build from the source tarball which already has the metadata.

+# Add the tarball

+# Depending on how annoying this gets, maybe comment it to switch back to SKIP
