Test builds at travis failing since release of pluggy v0.12

Hi all, Our test builds at StarKit began to unexpectedly fail since last 3 days. I checked this by doing some random changes in readme (https://travis-ci.org/jaladh-singhal/starkit/jobs/538727910) and they were still failing with same error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

The command "python setup.py $SETUP_CMD" exited with 1.

I further investigated and found that pluggy has been recently updated to v0.12.0 (on May 28) and since then only our travis builds are failing that are using SETUP_CMD='test --coverage'. FYI, it is an Astropy testing framework that runs pytest by passing option coverage to generate a coverage report. As much as I could understand, I noticed that pluggy is never used by us directly, it is somehow used by pytest under the hood (I may be wrong)?! Thus I resorted here to inform you about the issue to help us solve the problem. Is it somehow related to issue https://github.com/pytest-dev/pluggy/issues/205?

Thanks in advance. Please let’s try to fix this soon 😃

@nicoddemus @asottile Thank you so much, now it works absolutely fine.

Yes @nicoddemus it contains py36_1 now!

Brilliant work guys - thanks for such a fast fix (now no need for workaround) 😄
