            Bug ID: 261082
           Summary: AutoInstaller unable to install beautifulsoup4 4.12.2
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: gsnedders at apple.com

This packages relies on PEP 517 (https://peps.python.org/pep-0517/) being properly implemented; while Jonathan implemented a hackish workaround with bug 253066 that works for some packages, it doesn't work for bs4 which declares in its pyproject.toml:

[build-system]
requires = ["hatchling"]
build-backend = "hatchling.build"

I still feel like us having to reimplement more and more of the Python packaging ecosystem is likely fragile, and we should simply leverage more existing tools (whether by calling pip from the autoinstaller, or by vendoring packages such as build).
