I got the same error, but I noticed you use `setup.py develop` which is not a recommended practice afaik. So I've tried `pip install -e .` instead and everything worked like a charm. > > Using `setup.py develop` these days is literally like asking for a trouble from my point of view, it is also not recommended by Python developers. These days PEP 517 and 518 make the use of `setup.py install` and `develop` effectively deprecated. I can't find any documentation about `setup.py develop` being deprecated in the setuptools documentation: https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setuptools.html#development-mode. The `test` command in comparison has a big red deprecation banner. `pip install -e` and/or using `flit install -s` as possible workarounds work. Thanks for the pointers.
