When I've tried to install pype with pip it shows this error:

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

Research direction

Reproduce the failed pip3 install pepy on Windows with Python 3.13, then inspect the package's pyproject.toml build configuration and the packaged pe-parser-library/src/buffer.cpp path shown in the error. Done means the package builds its extension and installs successfully in the reported environment.
