You seem to be angry. Why?

I am just bringing information from A to B (from github issue
to this list).

I guess the author of psutil is just a volunteer like you are.

What is the problem? I think the problem is that
creating wheels for psutil is difficult.

I think we all agree on this.

If not, if you think it is easy, then please tell us.

My intention was, to find a solution.
