+Subject: [PATCH] Use importlib.resources instead of pkg_resources
+
+From the setuptools website [1]:
+
+Use of pkg_resources is discouraged in favor of importlib.resources,
+importlib.metadata, and their backports (importlib_resources,
+importlib_metadata). Please consider using those libraries instead of
+pkg_resources.
