remove RUN pip install eth-rlp==0.3.0 from dockerfile (blocked)

[sabotagebeats]

Elevator pitch:

this line shouldn't need to be here but is because of a dependency mismatch. if we can resolve that by updating the pins then we can remove that line. This work item is to track that.

Value:

cleaner dockerfile, faster build time for docker

Dependencies:

related: #891
blocked by: #892

Design approach:

remove that line from dockerfile after pins have been updated

Task list:

• update pins to be compatible for newest version of eth-rlp  #892
• remove that line from dockerfile after pins have been updated

Estimated completion date: next sprint

Design review:

Do not signoff unless:

• 1. agreed the tasks and design approach will achieve acceptance, and
• 2. the work can be completed by one person within the SLA.
     Design reviewers should consider simpler approaches to achieve goals.

I tried putting this in setup.py, as this is the version that gets installed anyway. However - it still fails unless present in the Dockerfile so I was not able to get rid of it.

I am guessing pip install eth-rlp does something magical...

I researched this more.

In site packages, the install of eth-rlp is corrupt. Everything is fine except the __init__.py file is unexpected.
Clearing the install and reinstalling fixes the issue.

However - this smells like an issue somewhere in eth-acount or pyrlp, not in ape.
