Unable to build container locally.

[FreshImmuc]

Hey, I already tried building the container locally several times. I also already tried installing the dependencies from "#1093"
But i still get this error everytime i try to execute make container:

Did you try pip install -e . which will automatically generate proxy.common._scm_version file for you.

I tried, it gives me this Error:

root@XXXXXXX:/home/proxy.py# pip install -e .
ERROR: File "setup.py" not found. Directory cannot be installed in editable mode: /home/proxy.py
(A "pyproject.toml" file was found, but editable mode currently requires a setup.py based build.)

pip install -U pip should solve this. Also make sure /home/proxy.py contains repo clone.

Okay hm so i did this:

root@XXXX:/home/proxy.py# pip install -e .
ERROR: File "setup.py" not found. Directory cannot be installed in editable mode: /home/proxy.py
(A "pyproject.toml" file was found, but editable mode currently requires a setup.py based build.)

Alright by simply putting sudo infront of the command fixed it...
Sorry but thanks anyways! :)
