Currently, python-setuptools is at version 52.0 and python2-setuptools
at version 41.0.1.  Both build fine.  The comment says:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; Newer versions of setuptools no longer support Python 2.
(define-public python2-setuptools
  (package
    (name "python2-setuptools")
    (version "41.0.1")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

therefore, this part of the bug is done.  Let check the other part.


Cheers,
