Hey, It looks like you don't have the setuptools Python module installed. Try running the following command in your terminal. If you are running setup.py with another Python executable, replace `python` in the command with that executable.
``` sudo python -m pip install setuptools ``` Then try running the setup command again. It's weird that the package manager installed version does not work though. You should reach out to the maintainer of the package manager version and see what they say. Thanks, Gabrielle (Sorry if this sent twice, I was having issues with my email client.)
