Sometimes problems occur due to network or server issues when
downloading packages, in which case retrying your operation
a bit later might lead to good results.

To determine the nature of the issue, please review the
saltstack.log file under /var/cache/remnux/cli in the
subdirectory that matches the REMnux version you're installing.
Search for the log file for "result: false" messages and look at
the surrounding lines to diagnose the issue.

Hi @smartzh It appears that the issue you're experiencing centers around a python package with the version '0.23ubuntu1', which is no longer a "valid" version in the pypi/pip world.
To resolve this, you can run the following:

sudo python3 -m pip install --upgrade setuptools wheel pip

After that you can try your install process again and it should work.
