Looks like this port downloads a file that it does not intend for MacPorts to extract. In that case clear extract.only.

However, it was not discussed when this port was added why it downloads something precompiled rather than compiling it as is usual in MacPorts.

This Python wheel is just a bunch of Python files and scripts. It is not compiled.

Ok. Nevertheless, why do we download a wheel rather than package it ourselves like we normally do?

And can you please fix this in all of the other ports you added that have the same problem? For example, py-tf-slim is also affected but I did not check all of your other ports.
