Python 2.7 setup runtime unable to successfully install packages about setup-python

[konradpabjan]

New version of 2.7 is compiled and it's just awaiting deployment to all vms.

Nov 18th-20th is my rough estimate for when it should roll out everywhere. Normally we do weekly deployments but due to Github Universe happening next week we're not going to be pushing out any new changes.

Python 2.7 on ubuntu 1604 and 1804 is being rebuilt with ucs4 so it should fix any packages that fail to install

Thanks @konradpabjan!

I'm tagging @bryanmacfarlane as this comment makes it seem like they are now in charge of the setup-python Action.

You may have hit the same problem I did with #23

Sounds good. So watch this space/check back in a few weeks?

#23 has been closed out so it should be possible to install all types of packages with 2.7 that required wide-character support
