Additional context

Per pypa/setuptools#4483, this failure is intentional due to some behaviour changes in setuptools. I'm not completely familiar with the change or setuptools overall, but the gist seems to be that setuptools now "prefers installed dependencies over vendored ones", whatever that means in this case.

EDIT: Filed a PR to fix this in Scalene.

[sarahec]

As soon as Emery has a fix on his end, we can bump the version number or apply the patch.

Edit: Watch this PR plasma-umass/scalene#854

[sarahec]

Updated in the original sources. We need Emery to cut a new release of Scalene as we're building from the published binary. (The scalene source build is complicated.)

FYI, I managed to make source builds work. That will make future bug responses quicker.
