Assessment

Difficulty: 2/5
Estimated time: 1-3 hours
Newbie friendliness: 30/100

Issue type: Bug
Clarity: Mostly clear
Activity status: Stale
Tech stack: javascript, python
Domain: build-system, tooling

Research direction

Start with setup.py around line 20 and the package metadata that produces setup.cfg; reproduce the virtualenv installation failure shown in the report. Check whether the proposed zip_safe and keywords changes remove the bad marshal data error and warning, then confirm that installation succeeds.

I think that adding zip_safe=True it's fixed. Also, changing keywords type (from tuple to list), the warning shown Warning: 'keywords' should be a list, got type 'tuple' can be avoided.
