This is a temporary workaround to address the installation issue of the zope.interface package on the ppc64le architecture. I haven’t identified why the build succeeds on other architectures. Based on my observations, the installation fails with any version of setuptools greater than 70.*.
The latest release of setuptools in the 69.* series appears to work correctly, as most packages require a version greater than 61.*.
We need a more robust method for pinning package versions and managing updates in the future. Details of the failure can be found here: https://github.com/MariaDB/buildbot/actions/runs/10505629895/job/29103561343
@vladbogo , @grooverdan if you have better ideas how to handle this, please let me know.
