Due to the nature of what these bindings are and how they work, it
is infeasible to install the GPGME Python bindings in the same way.
This is because the bindings use SWIG to dynamically generate C
bindings against =gpgme.h= and =gpgme.h= is generated from
=gpgme.h.in= at compile time when GPGME is built from source. Thus
to include a package in PyPI which actually built correctly would
require either statically built libraries for every architecture
bundled with it or a full implementation of C for each
architecture.
