[gdal-dev] Generating Python Bindings for GDAL 3.11.4

[Mazin Marwan]

Hi all,

I've installed GDAL 3.11.4 using VCPKG and am now trying to generate the
python bindings using:

pip install gdal

However I'm running into the following error:

ERROR: Failed building wheel for gdal
Failed to build gdal
error: failed-wheel-build-for-install

× Failed to build installable wheels for some pyproject.toml based projects
╰─> gdal

A bit of research online has led me to believe that the pip version is just
broken and that the fix is installing a .whl file from cgholke's geospatial
wheels repo but that seems like a workaround instead of a proper fix. Is
there another way to fix this?
