Cannot build package due to pkg_resources.extern.packaging.version.InvalidVersion

edit

Hello,

Currently, I am on Galactic, Ubuntu 20.4

Whenever I run colcon build, my process always fails and give the following reason. After doing some research, I know is having an issue about the pip version.

Thus, I am wondering if there is a way I can solve it. Thank you very much!
