pip install fails due to pep 517

[StephenOman]

This is a migration copy of the issue here: facebookresearch#359

Hi, I had trouble running pip3 install nle on Ubuntu 22.04.

below, notice it says pyproject.toml, not setup.py. My guess is, this is due to those new-ish build isolations.

What did help (workaround 👍 ) is pip3 install --no-use-pep517 nle

This looks to be fixed by #63 which updates pyproject.toml.

Repro (from the PR branch):

rm -rf .venv
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install -e .
