Here's what I've got...

@conda-forge/help-python, ready for review!

Why is this skipped? It looks like this could be a noarch package.

[jeongseok-meta]

The upstream package unfortunately does not support Windows (rethinkdb/rethinkdb-python#217). I initially tried making it noarch, but this failed due to binary files and other issues. This PR doesn't include a detailed history of these failures, but I can reproduce them if needed.

[xhochy]

Make it noarch and add a __unix dependency to run. This should save you a fair bit of maintenance work.

[jeongseok-meta]

Sounds good to me. It's done in 77845af!

Hm, now win build fails with:

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Not sure if this means this package cannot be noarch or if there is a resolution that I am not aware of.

You need to specify the Python entry_points as seen in https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda-build/en/latest/resources/define-metadata.html#python-entry-points
