/home/luca/package/tree/opt/pEp/lib/python3.13/site-packages/setuptools/__init__.py:94: _DeprecatedInstaller: setuptools.installer and fetch_build_eggs are deprecated.
!!
 ********************************************************************************
 Requirements should be satisfied by a PEP 517 installer.
 If you are using pip, you can try `pip install --use-pep517`.
 ********************************************************************************

Support for this functionality is scheduled to be removed.

This seems relevant:

The deprecation is not a deep problem, having to do with build conventions rather than code: one is now supposed to invoke pip instead of python setup.py, even if pip ends up doing the same internallty.

In pEp-build I simply do not call make: see build_pEppythonadapter in https://codeberg.org/pEp/pEp-build/src/branch/master/unix/pEp-build (after I delete the branch wip-backup--to-delete (2024年11月28日)).
