I'm building a pure python wheel in a python3.9 virtualenv.
If I use python setup.py bdist_wheel I do get a wheel named
rlextra-3.6.0-py3-none-any.whl
I'm trying out building a modern python 3 only wheel so I followed instructions
here
https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/packaging-projects/#creating-the-package-files
and see the error below which is not very informative. Any ideas of what's wrong? I still get the error even after
upgrading pip so I don't think that is the problem.
