Hello all, I am trying to install prometheus/client_python locally and it is failing. Here is a minimal reproducible example (I am on Mac)

  1. Create virtual env python3 -m venv env
  2. Activate source env/bin/activate
  3. Run install command as per instructions pip install prometheus-client

Everything completes successfully

Successfully installed prometheus-client-0.20.0
  1. Open Python shell
  2. Try to import the module as per docs import prometheus_client
  3. Get above exception.

Could you please advise what is going wrong? I receive the same error after installing prometheus-client in a Docker container as well.
