Yep this is an issue with the recent version update we did with the Bigquery library.

As a mitigation, you should be able to add a file to the top-level directory and add it to the main BUILD rule.

# ./pkg_resources.py
def get_distribution(name):
  fake_dist = object()
  setattr(fake_dist, 'version', '1.1.0')
  return fake_dist

We'll work on getting an actual solution out in the near future.

Thanks for the report!

I haven't figured out how to do this, I put a file at the root of upvote and I still get the error. I even tried adding setuptools as an external library. Does anyone know how to do this?
