Yikes- no setuptools or distutils? I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

I guess it couldn't hurt to add a sudo python3 -m pip install --upgrade setuptools into the installer. Albeit on Pi it might also need a sudo apt install python3-pip in the first place.

I tried the recommended build steps: sudo apt install python3-pip sudo python3 -m pip install --upgrade setuptools ... and then reran install.sh Issue fixed - thanks!
