Andrew Stitcher commented on PROTON-2049:
-----------------------------------------
The cause of this issue is that the wheel package is not installed in the
environment being used for packaging. The bdist_wheel sub command to setuptools
magically appears when it is installed.
> setup.py bdist_wheel does not work (or even seem to exist)

> Key: PROTON-2049
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-2049
> Project: Qpid Proton
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: build, python-binding
> Affects Versions: proton-c-0.25.0
> Reporter: Andrew Stitcher
> Priority: Major
>
> Up to this point we have distributed the Python bindings as a source python
> package (as built with {{python setup.py sdist}}, and this seems to work
> correctly.
> Now that the Python package will work fairly well on Windows it would be a
> good idea to be able to build and distribute a wheel arch specific package
> for the various possible windows versions.
> However the bdist_wheel sub command does not work and this makes this a whole
> lot harder than it needs to be.
