  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

That looks like a problem with setuptools. Which versions do you have?

[geoHeil]

• current latest version 69.0.3

I've tried, but I cannot reproduce it. tools.setuptools should be there from version 61 and it should be out of _BetaConfiguration by 68 or so. The pyproject.toml requires at least 65. I've tested it with those versions, works fine for me.

I'll close this for now. If this still keeps happening for you, feel free to add more information to this report.
