   mkdir -p /tmp/safetensors-build/dist python3 -m pip download --no-build-isolation --no-binary=:all: --no-deps \ --dest /tmp/safetensors-build safetensors==0.7.0

   

   --no-binary=:all: is used to disable the download of the precompiled wheel and ensure that the source package is obtained and local build is performed.

2. Build the wheel from the source package.
