ah yeh, that is somewhat of a tricky issue as it is more of a packaging caveat created when seebye dropped the python xlib, and it is one of the reasons i'm low key waiting until one distro packages it, as not long ago there was a change on the PEP standars and i would also be interested in having more control over the compilation of the c extension, i'm considering meson + ninja if a simple makefile doesn't suffice.
If using meson, may be interested in the semi-new https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson-python/ for PEP517.
As a distro packager, I'd rather not see homebrew solutions like a Makefile (esp. for anything involving python). That aside, in the current situation I could just rm -r excess files and ignore the deprecation warning for now, so it's not a major issue.
Thanks, will look into meson-python and implement to build the c extension, will see if i can make a point release before the end of this month.
As always feedback is appreciated.
