Crash on password prompt since version 1.42.0.2

On upload, setuptools crash instead of asking for a password. Downgrading to 1.41.6.0-1 fix this issue.

@willbelr This is probably for the best, setup.py upload was deprecated about 2 years ago because it's very dangerous to use (both for you and for PyPI), and actively removed in the latest version of setuptools.

You should use twine instead.
