This is happening due to aux being a reserved MS-DOS word and the only workaround is very annoying. In case we want people to contribute to PyOBJus from Windows (e.g. docs if not the code) we'll need to rename it. That folder is most likely used on one of the iOS things hopefully only under Plyer, but I guess that something would also be available under Kivy-iOS, so it'll break things and I don't have any iOS device to test it with.
Same problem here, adding Pyobjus for example to Poetry conf breaks operations on Windows, because Poetry will naturally checkout dependencies (even those for other platforms) to perform dependency resolution.
This is a nasty limitation of Windows, but renaming this "aux/" folder in the source tree would solve it easily.
Catching up on this. Some ideas:
Can this folder be renamed without breaking iOS? Can the folder be deleted in advance during the installation process, before windows complains about it? Could the folder be named aux_rename and then renamed to aux, if installing on a non-windows environment?
