Forcing specific wheel name

[lvjonok]

Good day!

I am trying to adapt cibuildwheel workflow to my project and all wheels after the build come with py3-none suffix which is not true :) I mean, I know that those wheels are definitely are dependent on python version and should be marked accordingly. Is there any option I can guide workflow to name them as CIBW_BUILD variable? For example, for cp310-manylinux it will create *-cp310-cp310-* wheel.

My workflow is here if it would be helpful somehow.

The wheel name is up to the build backend. You are using cmeel, which seems to be a rather exotic CMake based backend that was designed (as far as I can tell) to ship binaries and not Python extensions. It intentionally installs things into folders you can't import in Python. I'd recommend trying scikit-build-core if you need a Python extension with CMake.

Thank you!
My choice of cmeel is guided by other libraries I depend on. I think your answer it is up to the build backend suits me.

Let me know if I'm wrong, but as far as I can tell, cmeel wasn't designed to allow you to make something importable. Ahh, no, I see "enable Python binding" in the example. So there must be some way to install into site-packages/<something>. Okay, then I bet there's a configuration flag somewhere, or it's a bug.
