Hi Michael,

Bad news I am afraid.

I created a new clone of next and ran a straight build, so without any ccache or cache entries.

The build failed at python3-pillow with the same message. So four build attempts I have done have all failed with the same message, and Matthias and Charles also. So the odd one out seems to be the x86_64 builder that is building successfully.

If you mean the directory entry of setuptools-63.2.0.dist-info that I found, I just tried deleting it in the build_x86_64 tree and re-running build without doing a clean first. The python3-pillow then successfully built.

So the presence of that directory is what is causing the problem but not sure why it is getting built.

Regards,

Adolf.
