ImportError: The 'jaraco' package is required when using setuptools 60.7

See original GitHub issue

Running the binary executable results in the import error.

It works using setuptools 60.6.0. I get the error when using setuptools 60.7.0.

Offending line:

from pkg_resources import parse_version

Relevant part of the backtrace:

    File "/app/my-app/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 74, in <module>
    File "/app/my-app/pkg_resources/extern/__init__.py", line 52, in create_module
    File "/app/my-app/pkg_resources/extern/__init__.py", line 44, in load_module
  ImportError: The 'jaraco' package is required; normally this is bundled with this package so if you get this warning, consult the packager of your distribution.

I am preparing a hotfix for later today, it’s solved on factory: https://nuitka.net/doc/factory.html

The crazy guys added code like this:

lorem_ipsum: str = files(name).joinpath(‘Lorem ipsum.txt’).read_text()

No program should ever have to run without that kind of 1335 bytes of content, right? I am really shocked of the quality of this update of pkg_resources. Anyway, Nuitka supports it, and removes the need for that file at the same time.
