I can suggest fixing grpcio package version. I am also fine with any other solution, let's discuss.

Just did a PR (linked above) to fix the version to 1.9.1 (1.10.0 works on my Ubuntu, tough).

[juanjux]

@zurk package 2.9.1 with the fixed dependency to the previous version is in pypi.

gRPC 1.10 macOS binary wheels were not generated by our build infra for some reason and were missing on PyPI and that caused macOS clients to try to build from source, some of which would fail because they did not have the toolchain dependencies installed. They are uploaded now. Should no longer need to pin the version.

@mehrdada thanks, I'll pin version 1.10 soon then.
