No, the problem is specific to pyfai:

It tries to use python3-pip to download an older version of setuptools 
from the internet during the build (downloading from the internet during 
the build is not allowed) because setup.py disallows the version in Debian.

The fix is to make pyfai work with more recent version of setuptools.
