There doesn't seem to be any information on why this failed in the traceback. Usually it printouts out while there somewhere. Are you capturing both stderr and stdout? Can we see the setup files (setup.py, setup.cfg, pyproject.toml)?

I will re-start that computer, and retrieve the setup.py, setup.cfg, pyproject.toml files. Or, re-do the tutorial to recreate them.
