centos-9 content provider fails installing ansible-role-collect-logs "error: subprocess-exited-with-error"

[Marios Andreou]

At [1][2][3] the tripleo-ci-centos-9-content-provider fails during the quickstart install and when installing requirements fails during processing of ansible-role-collect logs. Trace looks like:

This is a gate blocker and looks to be master only? e.g. I can see a green wallaby run (from the gate) at [4] between the failed master jobs - run history at [5]

added the promotion blocker tag so we get this into CIX (even though this isnt' strictly blocking promotions only gate)

takashi also filed this at https://bugs.launchpad.net/tripleo/+bug/1966382 (thanks ysandeep) we can mark one as duplicate

Looks like broken by the latest setuptools released last night

Someone reported similiar issue:-
https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/issues/3197

[Marios Andreou (marios-b)]

relevant issue there https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/issues/3197

suggested workaround for disabling auto discovery "explicitly set py_modules=[] in setup.py or py-modules = [] in pyproject.toml [tool.setuptools]."

Closing this bug as duplicate.

as https://bugs.launchpad.net/tripleo/+bug/1966382 was reported earlier.
