Execute the command with the normal expected output, e.g.:

python setup.py build
running build
running build_py
copying llama_stack_init_.py -> build\lib\llama_stack
copying llama_stack\apis\resource.py -> build\lib\llama_stack\apis
copying llama_stack\apis\version.py -> build\lib\llama_stack\apis
