This issue is an intentional change as a result of version 58 release. The issue should be fixed in the suds-jurko project.

[jaraco]

The Homepage link from the PyPI project is 404, and the last release was in 2014, so it seems the project is abandoned. I vaguely remember working on that project. I may even have been the person who contributed the use_2to3 usage (I can't recall). I've reached out to the author via email to see if I can take over maintenance of the project and unblock this issue. In the meantime, projects that depend on suds-jurko may need to pin to setuptools<58 or build their own wheels of the package to avoid the issue.

If I don't hear back from Jurko or if he's unwilling to hand over maintenance or address the issue, I'll probably create yet another fork of the project.

[jaraco]

I found https://github.com/andersinno/suds-jurko, which not only contains the code history, but also seems to have changes that were previously unreleased. The issue was reported andersinno/suds-jurko#6.

[qiyang0221]

Totally make sense. Thanks, Jason!

[jaraco]

Update: I've been in contact with jurko and am working out a plan to update suds-jurko to work in a Setuptools 58 world.

[jaraco]

Being yet unable to find bandwidth to maintain the project, I've uploaded a wheel to https://m.devpi.net/jaraco/dev that consumers can use to bypass the issue:

$ pip-run -q wheel 'setuptools<58' -- -m pip wheel suds-jurko

As you can see, I downloaded the sdist directly from PyPI and uploaded it to devpi. Users can use that index to get that build:

$ pip install -i https://m.devpi.net/jaraco/dev suds-jurko

[jaraco]

I've forked suds-jurko into a new project, suds-bis with an 0.6 release matching the behavior of suds-jurko 0.6. This build includes wheels and will install on Python 2 and Python 3. Please use it in place of suds-jurko.

[jaraco]

Today, I learned that suds-community exists and is actively maintained. Forget about suds-bis and use suds-community instead.
