+Subject: [PATCH] remove pkg_resources import
+
+setutools 82 dropped pkf_resources module. Also, beside importing
+it, it isn't used for anything.
+
+Upstream has started to rework their setup config, and moved to
+build_meta, however that's still in development, and there seem to
+be no stable version yet.
+
+Once there is a new version, most likely this patch can be dropped.
+
+Upstream-Status: Inappropriate [see above]

Setuptools 82 dropped pkg_resources module. It is not used by the setup script, nevertheless, it is imported, and this missing module fails compilation. This patch removes this import. Upstream started to work on refactoring their setup scripts, so this patch is not appropriate to them - once/if they release, most likely this patch can be dropped.
