pip does not install the inx file in the extensions directory, just the Python package

It seems to be impossible to fix this issue. pip creates a wheel before installing the package and I've found no solution to install files outside of the wheel.
Solution: Remove the advice with pip --install --target and propose to copy the files manually... :(

Current solution: Raise an exception if a bdist_wheel is built.
