Thanks for the tips! You saved me lots of time, so here you have a Dockerfile based on your post:

#
# dropahead steempy container
#
# VERSION               0.0.1
#

FROM python:3

# Update packages
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get upgrade -y

# Install steempy
RUN pip install -U steem

# Patch steempy metadata
RUN sed -i 's/0.9.3.1/0.9.3/' /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/steem-0.18.103.dist-info/METADATA

# Start supervisor
CMD ["/bin/sh"]

glad it helped!
You could even reduce this file to

FROM python:3
RUN pip install -U steem
RUN sed -i 's/(==0.9.3.1)/(==0.9.3)/g' /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/steem*/METADATA

apt-get update/upgrade is not necessarily needed (for steem-python to work - security is a different aspect). And with the wildcard in the sed command you should be safe with steem-python version bumps.

Well done putting this guide together!
I just reinstalled a host a few days ago and ran into exactly these issues. :)

Congratz !

I was able to install steempy by first installing Anaconda, then I had to edit the METADATA of toml like you did. Thanks for the tip @crokkon
