      error: Multiple top-level packages discovered in a flat-layout: ['api', 'conf', 'figures', 'streamlit', 'image_to_latex'].
      
      To avoid accidental inclusion of unwanted files or directories,
      setuptools will not proceed with this build.
      
      If you are trying to create a single distribution with multiple packages
      on purpose, you should not rely on automatic discovery.
      Instead, consider the following options:
      
      1. set up custom discovery (`find` directive with `include` or `exclude`)
      2. use a `src-layout`
      3. explicitly set `py_modules` or `packages` with a list of names
      
      To find more information, look for "package discovery" on setuptools docs.

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

Also getting the error as @NightMachinery mentioned.

Any quickfixes yet?

you could just use‘pip install -r requirements.txt’ to install all requirements.just forget it.But it seems to occur some problem.You need to adjust its version or install some missing packages.

In setup.py: add "py_modules=["image_to_latex","api"]," after install_requires=[required_packages], in end.

In setup.py: add "py_modules=["image_to_latex","api"]," after install_requires=[required_packages], in end.

This method works
