@voltagex It looks like the "is not a recognized command" error comes from Calibre's own setup.py file, which I determined by grepping around for "is not a recognized command" 😛 (it feels stupid that that worked) So I'm currently tinkering with adding a time.sleep() call in that code path and taking a look at the process tree while it's sleeping.
I'm still not sure what's really going on, but it's looking more and more like this is caused by Calibre getting up to weird shenanigans in its own build script, not by pip. (As further evidence, I can reproduce the same error without involving pip at all, by using a different build frontend like the build package, https://pypi.org/project/build/.)

#AskFedi #Python experts - how do I fix "egg_info is not a recognized command." from pip install / pip install -e?
(also where would I add a bug report to say that pip should tell me *which* package failed?)
I have tried:
* Upgrading pip / setuptools
* Downgrading pip / setuptools
* Installing wheel
* Despairing at the state of Google search
* pip install --debug (still didn't tell me exactly which package failed!)

AtCoder ABC402 D - Line Crossing を解きました。
傾きを求めて線を分類するんだろうと思って取り組んだのですが、まともに傾きを計算する必要はないんですね。公式解説を読んで目から鱗でした。
円環グラフ上の線分交差を数える問題。交差しない条件は(A+B)%Nが同じ値のときのみ。
