raise AssertionError("build_ext overridden!") when call python setup.py install

[gekator]

I use Ubuntu 64bit 19.04. I use python 3.7.5 I installed the TA-LIB libraries from ta-lib-0.4.0-src.tar.gz successfully. However when i call python setup.py install i get that error:

AssertionError: build_ext overridden!

What should i do?

I'm not sure what is different about your distutils that seems to be overriding the build_ext that is provided in the setup.py... that does not happen with my Python3 installations.

Any resolution to this? I have the same issue.

[mrjbq7]

Can you provide some information about your environment? What version of python, cython, numpy, distutils, setuputils?
