This is a module written in C++, for which CMake makes a lot of sense (the tool originally did not have Python bindings at all). > It looks like this is the solution that you were referring to: > > https://github.com/kpeeters/cadabra2/commit/189a587c37771def45ef7ad1f373f5081a075fe1 Yes. I'll post on debian-python to see if there's anything better. > BTW: it looks like there are tools in pybind11 for CMake: It does seem to have some functionality to obtain the SOABI name but it does not decide on the installation path, as far as I can see (I suspect it will not pick dist-packages over site-packages, for instance).
