`python3-websockify` dependencies not installed

The python3-websockify package itself installs without issues (non-EPEL dependencies are already present), but it doesn't function correctly:

$ websockify --help
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/websockify", line 6, in <module>
    from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
  File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3095, in <module>

    ws.require(__requires__)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 888, in require
    needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements))
  File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 774, in resolve
    raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'simplejson' distribution was not found and is required by websockify

dnf shows the correct dependencies after dnf install epel-release:

• python3-simplejson
• python3-redis
• python3-jwcrypto (which requires enabling module stream idm)
• python3-numpy (which requires libgfortran, libquadmath, openblas, and openblas-threads)

Note: dependencies above are specified in the setup.py within the sources, not the spec file.

Workarounds I've tried that doesn't work:

• Add epel-release as a dependency to one of 1) anvil-core, or 2) anvil-node and anvil-dr. This method failed because epel-release isn't installed prior to the dependency resolution for installing anvil-core and either anvil-node or anvil-dr. dnf resolves all dependencies before installation, meaning epel-release must be installed before the dependency resolution to make the correct dependencies visible.
• Add dnf install epel-release to the %pre section and dnf remove epel-release to the %post section for anvil-node and anvil-dr. This method failed because it instructs dnf to do a nested installation which causes a deadlock.

Note: this issue has not been tested on a freshly installed system; not sure if it only happens on the system I'm using.

May I get some direction(s) on how to solve this?
