faiss is an example:

$ python-package-init faiss

can confirm, this is quite unfortunate. @costrouc do you have an idea how to proceed here? maybe at least we could write out a more useful error message.

costrouc commented 4 years ago

Yeah this should be fairly easy to implement. I can't promise I have the time right now to implement that. Wheels actually have more information on them than sdists to we should be able to get more accurate requiements

Any updates?
