ERROR: Failed building wheel for rez

When install rez with command sudo python ./install.py， it always shows error：

Hi @JeanChristopheMorinPerso

After install wsl2(Ubuntu-20.04), it pre-installed python3.8 without venvand wheel. Before, I used pip install wheel command to install wheel

And as you mentioned above, pip install may overwrite apt’s wheel. So this time I only use these 2 command to setup basic env for rez: sudo apt install python3.8-venv sudo apt install python-wheel-common

Still have the same issue.

I had same issue as @ZhongLingXiao on my clean Ubuntu 20.04 deployment. I also followed advice given and had no success.

If you look in the below location in checked out code base you’ll see three .whl files. /$parentDir/build_utils/virtualenv/virtualenv_support ($parentDir is your local location of the codebase you pulled from git )

I used the below command-lines to explicitly install the versions of setup tools and wheel.

pip install /$parentDir/build_utils/virtualenv/virtualenv_support/setuptools-41.0.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl

pip install /$parentDir/build_utils/virtualenv/virtualenv_support/wheel-0.33.4-py2.py3-none-any.whl I did not use pip3 nor installed the pip .whl file in that folder

I then was able to run install.py script as instructed and it installed. I’m now continuing on with this install and seems to work as expected when compared to Centos.
