No module named 'dns.quic' - known issue or user error?

[StellarsJayNorthwest]

Hello! I installed dnspython today on Windows in VS Code by cloning the repo and then running "python setup.py install" in a .venv session in VS code.

I'm trying to run examples/mx.py but dns.quic is apparently missing. Am I doing something wrong here?

(.venv) PS D:\github\dnspython\examples> python --version
Python 3.11.2

(.venv) PS D:\github\dnspython\examples> python .\mx.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "D:\github\dnspython\examples\mx.py", line 3, in

Ah, this is a bug similar to #887. We don't build dnspython with setup.py anymore. The problem in this case is that setup.cfg is missing quic from the packages declaration in the [options] section. Make it look like this and reinstall and it will work:

packages =
dns
dns.quic
dns.rdtypes
dns.rdtypes.IN
dns.rdtypes.ANY
dns.rdtypes.CH

Alternatively, after activating the venv, you can build the way we test and then install (the README for dnspython on GitHub, and in future releases, will say to do this):

pip install --upgrade pip build
python -m build
pip install dist/*.whl

Now fixed!

Thank you! I had been struggling with installation instructions and dug up setup from a SO thread. Anyways, I did a pull, and followed your instructions to build and install, and everything seems to be working nicely.
