OK, I was able to reproduce the issue. It looks like you originally tried to pull the tag’s tarball from github. Note that the line immediately following your pasted snippet gives the explanation for the error:
It’s unfortunate that with setuptools-scm raw tarballs from github don’t work, perhaps there is a way to hide them from the release. But setuptools-scm is the best way for maintainers to manage release versions so this will be a common issue.
Strangely, it builds with the tarball from PyPI.
So closing.
Thanks for your help!
