Ack but these scripts aims at packaging the Python bindings or the SDK (or both) ?

I'm sorry, I don't know enough to answer that information.

I'm attempting to package lief.

The process relies heavily upon the setup.py file provided in the tarball for what to package. If that does not answer your question, I can pull in someone who knows more about the Python packaging process.

Sorry I'm quite noob with FreeBSD.

So far, I used to package python projects like this:

• python ./setup.py install (tested on FreeBSD 13)
• pip install [--user] lief (I didn't compiled wheels for FreeBSD but I could do it)

Let's me know you thoughts regarding the way you tried to package it.

I had a more experienced FreeBSD Python packager look at this. They said:

• i wouldnt be surprised if cmake is part of this issue, how/when is it ivoked? usually properly packaged pypi packages dont need cmake, and only setuptools
• i wouldnt be using cmake at all
• it looks like they invoke cmake directly, which then runs the setuptools bits
• this is weird.
• they should use cmake @ dev time, to produce the sdist, that is already processed and the resulting sdist uploaded
• remove the cmake, and just use distutils autoplist
• let us know how the behaviour changes
