NZBGet: Incomplete version of setuptools installed

Hi,

I’m running the latest version of NZBGet on a rapsberry pi with docker. I am trying to send a push notification using Apprise with the Notify NZBGet script. However when I test the server connection, I get the following error:

Executing script Notify.py with command TestServers
Notify: Traceback (most recent call last):
Notify: File “/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/markdown/meta.py”, line 23, in
Notify: import packaging.version
Notify: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘packaging’
Notify: During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Notify: from pkg_resources.extern import packaging
Notify: ImportError: cannot import name ‘packaging’ from ‘pkg_resources.extern’ (unknown location)
Script Notify.py with command TestServers failed (terminated with unknown status)

This looks like there is an incomplete version of setuptools installed. When I reinstall the package then everything works ok:

pip3 install --ignore-installed setuptools

Would it be possible to add the setuptools package to the DockerFile during install, or is there a workaround I could use?

Perfect, wasn’t aware of this. Thank you.
