Recommended action: Add the build backend wheels to the wheelhouse/mirror (`pip download setuptools wheel <backend>`), or prebuild wheels on a connected machine; alternatively use --no-build-isolation after installing build deps into the target env yourself. Option: Provide build backends offline [evidence: documented_workaround] Applies when: See record scope. Steps: 1. On a connected host: pip download -d wheelhouse setuptools wheel <other build requires> 2. Install with --no-index --find-links wheelhouse Expected: Command proceeds without the error.
