Following #2687, where the wheel dependency has been changed to use the setuptools recommended approach, as the old pattern would have been removed in October 2025, this PR removes the
haveWheel
condition from the setup.py. (Unindent code where needed)In the same depreciation issue handling, the
wheel
dependency (that was installed through pip), was needed before setuptools 70.1 as it provided thebdist_wheel
implementation. Since we already require that minimum setuptools, drop thewheel
dependency.From https://pypi.org/project/wheel/
Note that
pip wheel
doesn't require our project to installwheel
to work as before.
