Daniele (namesake),

Thanks for the quick response.  I tried that, it looks like https://github.com/psycopg/psycopg2/blob/master/scripts/build/appveyor.py#L291 shows the build step:

python setup.py build_ext -l "libpgcommon libpgport"

After that, I still get a binary that depends on libpq.dll - but when I install psycopg2-binary, the DLL installed (the PYD file) does not depend on libpq.dll - it is statically built.

You can follow what Appveyor does, which is the CI that builds
psycopg2 packages.

- this is the setup
https://github.com/psycopg/psycopg2/blob/master/.appveyor/packages.yml
- this is the script it calls into:
https://github.com/psycopg/psycopg2/blob/master/scripts/build/appveyor.py

You can use the ML at psycopg@postgres.org for further questions.
