Homebrew fails to install mopidy, "No module named 'setuptools'" (Sonoma 14.4.1, M3)

[limsammy]

Hello!
This may potentially be related to #37 , or it's my Python installation.

I'm setting up all my old dotfiles and configurations on my new M3 Pro Macbook running Sonoma 14.4.1.

Python install information

• Using pyenv to manage installations
• Currently have global set to Python version 3.12.3 (outputs with python --version)
• Using pipx for packages like poetry, mypy, black, etc. that I want available globally; the ones I don't want to reinstall for each virtualenvironment
• Here's brew info python3 for more info (same version):

==> python@3.12: stable 3.12.3 (bottled)

Python has been installed as

Unversioned symlinks `python`, `python-config`, `pip` etc. pointing to
`python3`, `python3-config`, `pip3` etc., respectively, have been installed into

How I reached this error:

1. As per documentation, I started by tapping the keg: brew tap mopidy/mopidy
2. I then proceed to run the install command via brew: brew install mopidy

The following is the command output & error, the error being setuptools not being installed.

It seems like setuptools cannot be located with brew. Does anyone have any advice?

I ran easy_install --version to verify if setuptools is installed and easy_install is not installed either (zsh unrecognized command)

Huh, I actually just fixed it right after I posted this issue. Installing setuptools with pip (pyenv), pip3 (brew installation), pipx, etc. wasn't working, so I did a brew install python-setuptools (Found here: https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/python-setuptools).

I then re-ran brew install mopidy and it successfully installed. Will leave this open for the timebeing if maintainers think it may be useful to add python-setuptools as a prerequisite to the brew formulae (I'm not 100% sure how brew formulas work)
