Python: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'traceback'

I'm trying to minimize a docker container that uses python and I am getting an error. My Dockerfile looks like this:

FROM amazonlinux:latest

RUN yum install -y make gcc nano openssl-devel bzip2-devel libffi-devel tar zip unzip gzip wget mysql mariadb-devel python-devel sqlite-devel aws-cli \
    && cd /tmp \
    && wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.7.3/Python-3.7.3.tgz \
    && tar -xzf Python-3.7.3.tgz \
    && cd Python-3.7.3 \
    && ./configure \
    && make \
    && make altinstall \
    && cd .. \
    && rm -r Python-3.7.3 \
    && rm -r Python-3.7.3.tgz \
    && pip3.7 install scrapy \
    && pip3.7 install mysqlclient \
    && cd /

When I run the container I get the error:

Error processing line 1 of /usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/zope.interface-5.1.0-py3.7-nspkg.pth:

Fatal Python error: initsite: Failed to import the site module

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

    import traceback
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'traceback'

The command I am using for building the slim container is:

docker-slim build --http-probe=false python-test-slim

Is there a flag I am missing or something similar? I am new to this project so I am not sure if this issue related to docker-slim. But I would be really happy I could get some help because the results amazing.

Start with the Dockerfile and reproduce the build using docker-slim build --http-probe=false python-test-slim. Inspect how the slimmed image handles Python's site initialization and the installed zope.interface namespace package, using the reported traceback import failure as the stopping point. Done means the resulting container starts without this error.
