ERROR: No .egg-info directory found in /tmp/pip-pip-egg-info

Describe the bug

When I try to install the shap python package with actions/setup-python, I get the following error:

ERROR: No .egg-info directory found in /tmp/pip-pip-egg-info-2o6_dq3n

Shap installs fine on my local machine, and other packages also work fine on github actions. This behaviour started about two days ago. As a result I cannot run the test suite for my explainerdashboard package.

Which version of the action are you using?

• v1
• [ x] v2
• Some other tag (such as v2.0.1 or master)

Environment

• self-hosted
• [x ] Linux
• [x ] Windows
• [ x] Mac

If applicable, please specify if you’re using a container

Python Versions Please list all of the effected versions of Python (3.6, 3.7, 3.8)

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior: Run the following github actions scripts:

name: test_action

on:
  push:
    branches: [ master ]
    
jobs:
  build:

    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    strategy:
      matrix:
        os: [ubuntu-latest, macos-latest, windows-latest]
        python-version: [3.6, 3.7, 3.8]

    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v2
    - name: Set up Python ${{ matrix.python-version }}
      uses: actions/setup-python@v2
      with:
        python-version: ${{ matrix.python-version }}
    - name: Install dependencies

        python -m pip install --upgrade pip wheel
        pip install flake8 pytest

I found the reason. Upgrade setuptools.

Having the same issue, however upgrading setuptools (v53.0.0) does not solve it. Any idea what could be causing it?
