Issue Description

  • Setuptools version 61.0.0+ introduces stricter configuration validation that breaks installation of filterpy due to an invalid configuration key in setup.cfg.

Detailed Problem:

  1. Current setuptools versions raise an error for the description-file key in setup.cfg.
  2. This prevents installation of filterpy, which is a dependency for facexlib.
  3. This error occurs with setuptools versions 61.0.0

Temporary Workaround:

  • Downgrade setuptools to version 60.10.0:

pip install setuptools==60.10.0

Recommended Long Term Solution:

Update filterpy packages's setup.cfg to use correct configurtion key:

  • Change description-file = README.rst to description_file = README.rst
