looks like pyevm uses pkg_resources.

[antazoey]

so ya... Pyevm uses pkg_resources up until the 0.9 range. I believe we would have update quite a bit of eth dependencies for this, which some people are argue is breaking and thus we may want to hold off until 0.8. Open to suggestions.

Would it change how we use eth dependencies to such an extent it would break our own?

V0.8 is not so far away where I'm okay punting to that just to be extra cautious. At least we got our lower level dependencies upgraded already

I think not really, but the hexbytes change is rather major. I remember users complaining in the past when I bumped web3.py too early.

[antazoey]

I created an issue because I noticed py-evm does not really claim to be fully Python 3.12 compatible: ethereum/py-evm#2169

[antazoey]

can merge this first: #2014 since separate but necessary

[antazoey]

waiting on an eth-tester / web3.py release and this will be good

importlib is struggling on python 3.12 because of no distutils. How peculiar.

[NotPeopling2day]

So my "fix" for entrypoints fixed the tests for 3.12 but broke all the others :/

Ah! https://docs.python.org/3/library/importlib.metadata.html

Pushed a conditional check but feel free to update if you would rather use the backport
