This patch removes the dependence on
pkg_resourceswhich is not available by default in Python 3.12 and beyond. It switches frompkg_resources.iter_entry_pointstoimport_metadata.entry_points.import_metadatais available in all supported versions of Python.The other change removes the use of
parse_requirementsand just hardcodes the package dependencies insetup.py, which is arguably good practice anyway since not all developer-installed packages are required by the installation.Finally,
setuptoolsis added torequirements.txtsince it is also no longer installed by default with Python 3.12.
