About:
auditwheel is a command-line tool for building and maintaining cross-distribution Python wheels on Linux. It analyzes wheel files to check for external library dependencies and can repair them by bundling the necessary shared libraries. This ensures that your Python packages can be distributed and installed reliably across different Linux distributions.

Key Features:

Audits wheels for external library dependencies
Repairs wheels by bundling shared libraries (vendoring)
Ensures compliance with manylinux standards for PyPI compatibility
Relabels wheels to target specific platform tags

Use Cases:

Preparing Python packages for distribution on PyPI
Bundling dependencies for deployment in containerized environments
Creating portable Python applications for Linux

Alternatives:

delocate – The macOS equivalent for bundling libraries into wheels
staticx – Focuses on creating fully static executables, whereas auditwheel creates self-contained wheels
