Issue for Python RAWPY package installation on Windows

I want to read RAW files on Python, and it seems that the Rawpy package is well suited for this. However when trying to install it using the Windows CMD

C:\Users\myself>py -m pip install rawpy

Or directly using Spyder command line with

!pip install rawpy

I get the following error

The last error line explicitly says that the file external/LibRaw-cmake/CMakeLists.txt cannot be found. Do you have any idea how to solve the issue?

For information, other packages don't show errors when running these CMD command lines. The error is really rawpy package dependent.

The version available at the time of the post (0.12.0) didn't offer Python 3.7 wheels, therefore pip downloaded the source distribution and tried to compile the package manually. This failed since it requires a more involved development setup.

A new rawpy version 0.13.0 is released now and offers wheels for Python 3.7 as well. A simple pip install rawpy should then work and download the wheel instead of the source distribution.
