This is fixed by using python 3.8.10

Now you can do pip install openupgradelib directly. Have you tried?

Sorry @pedrobaeza I did not see your message until now. I still face the same issue with python 3.7.9 and pip install openupgradelib and the workaround still works.

OK, let's keep it opened, but nobody has experimented more this problem.

@jcdrubay you are likely trying to install openupgradelib in an environment where setuptools is not available.

This is okay, in the modern packaging ecosystem, but the project then needs to declare explicitly that setuptools is its build backend. Which I did in #287.
