Docker Startup Error: `AttributeError: module 'rlp' has no attribute 'Serializable'`

See original GitHub issue

Literally followed the instructions for docker installation verbatim, and recieved the error: AttributeError: module 'rlp' has no attribute 'Serializable'. Attached to the tty, and ran the command pip3 install eth-ape[recommended-plugins] AND pip3 install -U eth-ape[recommended-plugins] everything came up installed both times. Looked for more documentation on performing a docker installation, and found the same information contained in the README.md. Kinda lost as to what to do now.

I will try to remember to return later and provide the full output.

If encounter this issue RLP has not attribute 'Serializble' at any other point when using the Ape, the fix is:

pip uninstall rlp --yes && pip install rlp==3.0.0

I have encountered this issue outside of docker, like when installing other libs and such, and then I have to do this again. It is odd. The init.py file for rlp changes for some reason. Maybe a bug related to having multiple installed packages named rlp.
