Windows: WIX3 is EOL
The last WIX 3 release was recently made and is now EOL. ParaView uses this to make its .msi
installers on Windows. Going forward, there is WIX 4. However, CMake does not support it yet: cmake/cmake#23910 (closed).
Other things this will help:
- is our perennial "path too long" problem for the packages (WIX4 supports long path syntax
- scipy could be in the
.msi
installer (currently blocked because it makes the paths too long)
