@aud I believe that is done, yes, but I don't recall off the top of my head as the make.py script is *incredibly* complex. It's simpler than it used to be, but a huge goal is getting rid of it entirely. It's all technical debt, imho.

@jonny @aud It is absolutely fair that Calibre, having started life as a Python 2 project (Kovid infamously said he would fork Python before porting to 3.x), predated modern packaging standards. That said, in 20 years of using Python, I don't ever recall a time where setup.py wasn't given special meaning, at least by easy_install.
