I'm not sure the use case is clear to me. How are Python wheels related<br>
to remote modules?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Package managers like to be able to subdivide VTK into multiple packages.</div><div>Being able to modularize the build itself, so that VTK can be built kit-by-kit</div><div>instead of all at once, is a logical extension of the multiple package idea.</div><div>If I recall correctly, the CI system for pypi was failing to build VTK due to</div><div>timeouts (I'm not sure what the workaround was, I suspect that Prabhu</div><div>built the wheels manually).</div><div><br></div><div>On a related note, we definitely want to be able to build remote modules</div><div>against an installed VTK.
