I have replicated this.
Will try to put together a PR as this is currently a blocker for me adding new hosts.

Been there, that's a problem with python-request you have to do the following:

$ sudo apt-get purge python3-requests
$ sudo apt-get install python3-requests python3-pip

Then install through pip the packaging package

pip3 install packaging

And see if you get a successful install if so, run again the setup file of MiAB.

Cheers.

@axd thanks for that! I also had to run
sudo pip3 install appdirs sudo pip3 install email_validator
In addition to the commands you said.

@axd Tried your method. Still getting this error.

[kenthinson]

@Lucif3r make sure you use a clan install of ubuntu. I tried it and it would not work until i did a fresh install.
