Is this something you can address? I am not sure what is going on but perhaps we could drop setuptools_scm? I'm assuming it is for getting the version, but we have that in Makefile, so could perhaps parse it? I actually have the same version of setuptools_scm here python3-setuptools-scm (7.0.5-1) but I cannot see the error.
