Description
As described over in the pip issue tracker, several long-deprecated Python import related APIs are being removed in Python 3.12. All of these have been documented as deprecated for years (in most cases, since Python 3.3). Now is the time to remove them.
However, this is blocked on references to these old APIs in
pkg_resourceswhich, through twisty mazes, breaks Python 3.12's build because of its vendoring of pip, hence, setuptools, hence pkg_resources.Here is the upstream Python ticket tracking these removals, which contains the APIs that are being removed. The
pipissue above has references to the places inpkg_resourceswhere these APIs are still being used.Expected behavior
Nothing in
pkg_resources,setuptools, orpipshould reference these long deprecated APIs.How to Reproduce
See the description in the pip issue description.
Output
See the description in the pip issue description.
