Amen to that, but who will pay for it? I imagine a great deal of
processing power would be required for this.
How do implementors of other languages handle this?

If you want wheel to be successful, **provide a build server**.
Quoting the author of psutil:

{{{
On Linux / Unix the only way you have to install psutil right now is
via source / tarball. I don't want to provide wheels for Linux (or
other UNIX platforms). I would have to cover all supported python
versions (7) both 32 and 64 bits, meaning 14 extra packages to compile
and upload on PYPI on every release. I do that for Windows because
installing VS is an order of magnitude more difficult than installing
gcc on Linux/UNIX but again: not willing to do extra work on that
front (sorry).
What you could do is create a wheel yourself with python setup.py
build bdist_wheel by using the same python/arch version you have on
the server, upload it on the server and install it with pip.
}}}
What do you think?

Thomas Güttler
