Unable to complete build_redtail_image.sh script

[Egoraptor09]

Hi There,
I've run the build_redtail_image.sh script to install the TensorRT-4.0.1.6.Ubuntu-16.04.4.x86_64-gnu.cuda-9.0.cudnn7.1.tar.gz file. The install fails when it gets to the setup tools stage.
How do I rectify this?
I've listed the output on screen when it fails

Thanks a lot in advance :)

I traced this issue to the line 64 in the docker image:

    && pip install setuptools wheel \

Speaking to a friend, he told me that Python2 has been depreciated since 1 January 2020. Thus the latest versions of setuptools no longer supports python2. I overcame this specific issue by changing line 64 in the docker image to the following:

    && pip install 'setuptools<43' wheel \

However as you can imagine, there are new errors that I am running into. I will let you know if I ever find a full solution, as many of the pip installs do not reference versions, and thus are just pulling the latest.

Look at my pull request #157 :

It fixes the docker issues. There were a few commands that needed changing in the Dockerfile.kinetic file.

Thank you - I've merged the fix to master.
