qiskit-aer is failing to install in my Windows Github Action

[qci-amos]

Informations

• Qiskit Aer version:

0.15

• Python version:

  Successfully set up CPython (3.11.9)

• Operating system:

Microsoft Windows Server 2022
  10.0.203[4]

It's looking for the "win_amd64.whl" wheel.

What is the current behavior?

  ERROR: Failed building wheel for qiskit-aer

Steps to reproduce the problem

What is the expected behavior?

I would expect Qiskit Aer to come bundled with a usable wheel for vanilla Windows GitHub Actions. Qiskit 0.14 worked fine.

Suggested solutions

For what it's worth, maybe the problem is that instead of this: https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-aer/blob/11a89c4213de39f249ecf93849598c9d4be6690d/.github/workflows/deploy.yml#L8-L11

I use windows-latest.

Since writing up this issue, my GHA have started passing on qiskit-aer 0.15. I don't know what changed to fix it.

I'll leave this open as an fyi in case you suspect there could be an issue, but otherwise feel free to close it.
