Research direction

Start by reproducing the PyMsgBox installation failure and inspect the pyproject.toml-based build output, focusing on the reported RecursionError and failed wheel creation. Done means the package builds and installs successfully through pip; the issue does not provide an environment, Python version, or repository file beyond the build-system reference.

Description

When I try to install it, I get RecursionError.
End of output:
RecursionError: maximum recursion depth exceeded
[end of output]
note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
ERROR: Failed building wheel for PyMsgBox
Failed to build PyMsgBox
ERROR: Could not build wheels for PyMsgBox, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects
