O pacote Python bcrypt no Heroku fornece AttributeError: o objeto 'module' não tem atributo 'ffi'

Estou tendo um problema ao usar o bcrypt com meu aplicativo Flask no Heroku. Quando implanto no Heroku e vou para a rota de logon, recebo 500 erros internos de servidor. Funciona corretamente localmente. Como faço para que o pacote bcrypt funcione no Heroku?

ERROR in app: Exception on /login [POST]
Traceback (most recent call last):
