Description

For reasons yet to be determined, on some platforms py 3.12 will attempt to build from source rather than use the provided binaries.

See: https://github.com/questdb/py-questdb-client/issues/81

  • That issue is being left open to investigage why the binary release isn't being used.
  • This issue is to fix the source package as it seems to not include all files necessary to build from source.

Research direction
