Poetry packages fail to install from source with pip when setuptools 60.0.0 is installed, including Poetry itself.

See original GitHub issue

I am on the latest Poetry version.
I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.
If an exception occurs when executing a command, I executed it again in debug mode (-vvv option).

OS version and name: macOS 11.5.2
Poetry version: Poetry version 1.1.2

Issue

Installing poetry packages, including poetry itself, from source currently fails with the newest version of setuptools. I opened up an issue on their tracker as well with all the details.

See https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/issues/2939

Edit: Note that this issue has been resolved with setuptools 60.1.1.

Note that poetry install does not fail; only pip install .

Thanks a lot for reporting this @alkasm 👍

I followed the issue on setuptools and was glad they found out the problem was on their site 😃

The install-poetry.py installer is exactly doing this.

Hm… I had this error and it got fixed by upgrading system-wide setuptools and virtualenv
