pip install with only-binary fails

[owillebo]

Running Python 3.9.1 on Windows 10.

Installing configobj fails when pip --only-binary option is used.

Is there any binary stuff in the configobj package?

If not, please make configobj install with --only-binary option.

My very naive guess is that this error is due to the only uploaded artifacts in pypi are source tarballs.

If this can be addressed via generating a wheel and uploading it, I'll give that a try in the new dev cycle.

Otherwise I may need someone who actually understands how pip works now to unblock this

5.0.7 does have a wheel, please re-open / make a new ticket if this doesn't address your needs.
