setuptools 82

[rerowep]

This module is not working any more with setuptools v82 (https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/tree/v82.0.0).

- ``pkg_resources`` has been removed from Setuptools. Most common uses of ``pkg_resources`` have been superseded by the `importlib.resources <https://docs.python.org/3/library/importlib.resources.html>`_ and `importlib.metadata <https://docs.python.org/3/library/importlib.metadata.html>`_ projects. Projects and environments relying on ``pkg_resources`` for namespace packages or other behavior should depend on older versions of ``setuptools``. (#3085)

Because of this and the use of passlib 1.7 we get now following error:

  File "/Users/wep/devel/rero/rero-ils/.venv/lib/python3.12/site-packages/invenio_accounts/admin.py", line 24, in <module>
    from passlib import pwd
  File "/Users/wep/devel/rero/rero-ils/.venv/lib/python3.12/site-packages/passlib/pwd.py", line 16, in <module>
    import pkg_resources
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pkg_resources'

which version of flask-security-fork do you use? As i know we tried to remove the pkg-resources dependency from newer versions.

Possible solutions:

• since passlib is a third party dependency you should ask there if they can fix it?
• you can pin setuptools<82

I am also experiencing this, when running on Python 3.12+ it causes tests to fail in any Invenio module that imports invenio-accounts (which imports flask-security-invenio).

There is indeed an issue for this in passlib but it doesn't look like it will be fixed in the near future.
