Setup Tool subprocess error

[SebastianOpiyo]

Seems the setuptools.installer is deprecated from the error message. Hence the installation keeps failing. Is this repo still maintained?

Below it the error:

SetuptoolsDepreca
tionWarning: setuptools.installer is deprecated. Requirements should be satisfied by a PEP 517 installer.
warnings.warn(
error: subprocess-exited-with-error

    python setup.py egg_info did not run successfully.
