ROSPy
for a pure ROS 2 Python package, you usually do not need a CMakeLists.txt. There are two valid ROS 2 Python package styles:
- ament_python style, No CMakeLists.txt.

package.xml
setup.py
setup.cfg
resource/<package_name>
<package_name>/__init__.py
In package.xml:
1

3
4
5
<buildtool_depend>ament_python</buildtool_depend>
<export>
<build_type>ament_python</build_type>
</export>
- ament_cmake + ament_cmake_python style

CMakeLists.txt
package.xml
<package_name>/__init__.py
This is what point_cloud_compressor does. It is still Python code, but the package is built through CMake. You need CMakeLists.txt for that style
