v1.5.6 Windows packages on PyPI broken

[ns-rse]

The packages (wheels) on PyPI for Windows all have files sizes of 2.0kb roughly 1% of the file sizes for Linux and Ubuntu.

As a consequence when the package is installed on Windows the libraries can't be loaded (see log).

To try working round this I forced install of libasd from source via pip install --no-binaries libasd libasd. Unfortunately the build failed (log), the relevant traceback is...

  Building wheels for collected packages: libasd
  Building wheel for libasd (pyproject.toml): started
  Building wheel for libasd (pyproject.toml): finished with status 'error'
  error: subprocess-exited-with-error
  
  Building wheel for libasd (pyproject.toml) did not run successfully.
  exit code: 1

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
  ERROR: Failed building wheel for libasd
  ERROR: Could not build wheels for libasd, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

I couldn't see any such errors in the recent log files of the CI runs you've made.

The build completes and libasd installs from source .tar.gz fine under Ubuntu (log) and OSX (log) (although not tested across on all versions of Python).
