Make sure you're either building from a fully intact git repository or PyPI tarballs. Most other sources (such as GitHub's tarballs, a git checkout without the .git folder) don't contain the necessary metadata and will not work.

For example, if you're using pip, instead of https://github.com/user/proj/archive/master.zip use git+https://github.com/user/proj.git#egg=proj

Looks like they suggest using the pypi instead of the github tar balls?

python-setuptools should be in makedepends, it does not build without

python-build and python-installer are needed to make this package and should be added to makedepends. Thanks!

One of the tests, conftest.py, expects the sys.path to be like "$_pkgname" and not "$_pkgname-$pkgver".

I'm sure there's a few ways you could fix this, such as changing extract path or even deleting the assert - I'm not sure why the check is there in the first place, but I just opted to patch the test to accept an env var to override basepath
