Hello,

Would be good to get some input from Python experts here. James? Vincent?

But isn't it super crappy to skip the dependency checks? I mean the #1
issue that Buildroot tries to deal with are dependencies of packages.
So if we ask them to then skip their dependency checks, how will we
make sure that all necessary dependencies are installed?

I understand that setuptools_scm may not be strictly needed, but by
passing --skip-dependency-check, don't we also skip checking other
important/mandatory dependencies?
