This package does not provide prebuilt wheels on PyPI, making installation difficult or impossible in some circumstances. One either has to manually download a .whl from a Github release page, or install various system packages and build tools so that it can be built from scratch every time.

As mentioned in #511 there are automatically built wheels at https://github.com/cgohlke/python-ldap-build. It would be fairly simple to add the Github Actions workflow from that repository to this one, and modernize the release workflow significantly to use trusted publishing and artifact attestations. I've done it for my own projects, it's not that complicated once you get it up and running.

Are the maintainers of this project open to contributions toward that end?
