Bug report

Bug description:

The _remote_debugging extension module is missing in the MSI Windows installer:

Python 3.14.0b2 (tags/v3.14.0b2:12d3f88, May 26 2025, 13:55:44) [MSC v.1943 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import _remote_debugging
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<python-input-0>", line 1, in <module>
    import _remote_debugging
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_remote_debugging'

The .pyd file is missing from the DLLs directory in the installation.

The _remote_debugging module is available in installations managed by the new Python Installer:

PS C:\Users\thoma> py
Python 3.14.0b2 (tags/v3.14.0b2:12d3f88, May 26 2025, 13:55:44) [MSC v.1943 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import _remote_debugging
>>> 

The new module needs to be added to the right Tools/msi files.

CPython versions tested on:

3.14

Operating systems tested on:

Windows
