Rez pip install package errors and warnings on Linux

[johhnry]

Using Rez 2.100.0 and commit 1fc378b trying to install the package locally:

$ rez pip -i .

Everything is working well but I have the warnings:

21:49:20 WARNING  Metadata: missing: ['Author'], warnings: []
21:49:20 WARNING  Metadata: missing: ['Home-page', 'Author'], warnings: []
21:49:21 WARNING  Ignoring extras requested on 'python-socketio[client]==5.4.0' - this is not yet supported

And this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/josephhenry/rez/bin/rez/rez", line 8, in <module>
    sys.exit(run_rez())
  File "/home/josephhenry/rez/lib/python3.7/site-packages/rez/cli/_entry_points.py", line 80, in run_rez

    wheel_data = setuptools_dist.get_metadata('WHEEL')
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get_metadata'

The error might be due to the missing tractor package but we need to make a package out of this.

Then if I try to run the env with silex_client, I get the following:

$ rez env silex_client
21:57:30 ERROR    PackageFamilyNotFoundError: package family not found: typing_extensions, was required by: aiohttp (searched: /home/josephhenry/packages; /home/josephhenry/.rez/packages/int; /home/josephhenry/.rez/packages/ext)

Finally trying to install typing_extensions with rez-pip gives me an error:

=> Here is the related issue: AcademySoftwareFoundation/rez#1159 (comment)

I am running Python 3.7.9 on Linux pop-os 5.13.0-7620-generic

It works now with the latest fixes from Rez (v2.103.1): AcademySoftwareFoundation/rez@5c6c8eb

I was able to do rez pip -i . from silex_client and then rez env silex_client successfully!
