ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'setuptools'

I think yarl is missing the setuptools dependency

$ pip3 install yarl
Collecting yarl

    Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<string>", line 1, in <module>

    ----------------------------------------
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-install-coyimtoq/yarl/

It worked after i installed it.
This was done on a clean debian 10 server

It's a build dependency. Ideally, if you have a good enough Pip version, it'd pick a binary wheel instead of sdist and wouldn't attempt building it.

It's a problem of how your OS does packaging, there's nothing we can do about it. setuptools is a common essential build tool in the world of modern Python packaging.
