Changelog

Sourced from setuptools's changelog.

v74.0.0

Features

• Changed the type of error raised by setuptools.command.easy_install.CommandSpec.from_param on unsupported argument from AttributeError to TypeError -- by :user:Avasam (#4548)
• Added detection of ARM64 variant of MSVC -- by :user:saschanaz (#4553)
• Made setuptools.package_index.Credential a typing.NamedTuple -- by :user:Avasam (#4585)
• Reraise error from setuptools.command.easy_install.auto_chmod instead of nonsensical TypeError: 'Exception' object is not subscriptable -- by :user:Avasam (#4593)
• Fully typed all collection attributes in pkg_resources -- by :user:Avasam (#4598)
• Automatically exclude .tox|.nox|.venv directories from sdist. (#4603)

Deprecations and Removals

v73.0.1

Bugfixes

• Remove abc.ABCMeta metaclass from abstract classes. pypa/setuptools#4503 <https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/pull/4503>_ had an unintended consequence of causing potential TypeError: metaclass conflict: the metaclass of a derived class must be a (non-strict) subclass of the metaclasses of all its bases -- by :user:Avasam (#4579)

v73.0.0

Features

• Mark abstract base classes and methods with abc.ABC and abc.abstractmethod -- by :user:Avasam (#4503)
• Changed the order of type checks in setuptools.command.easy_install.CommandSpec.from_param to support any collections.abc.Iterable of str param -- by :user:Avasam (#4505)

Bugfixes

• Prevent an error in bdist_wheel if compression is set to a str (even if valid) after finalizing options but before running the command. -- by :user:Avasam (#4383)

[edmorley]

Starting with setuptools v71.0.0, setuptools will now prefer any installed dependencies over the ones it vendors for its own usage:
https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/stable/history.html#v71-0-0
pypa/setuptools#4457

Whilst this change has good intentions (of being the first step towards setuptools moving away from vendoring and declaring explicit dependencies) this change carries a high risk of breakage for us, since setuptools will now fail in weird and wonderful ways if the app dependencies happen to include outdated versions of setuptools own dependencies. This is less of an issue for packages being built in a PEP-517/518 style isolated build environment, however, not all packages have migrated from setup.py to pyproject.toml builds yet (and pip only uses an isolated build environment if they have, or if there is no setuptools/wheel installed globally).

As such, I don't have plans to update setuptools beyond 70.3.0 (the last version before 71.0.0), and for Python 3.13+ this buildpack will stop installing setuptools and wheel by default. (The Python CNB has already stopped installing them for all Python versions: heroku/buildpacks-python#243)

I'll update the Dependabot config to exclude setuptools from updates.

[dependabot]

OK, I won't notify you again about this release, but will get in touch when a new version is available. If you'd rather skip all updates until the next major or minor version, let me know by commenting @dependabot ignore this major version or @dependabot ignore this minor version. You can also ignore all major, minor, or patch releases for a dependency by adding an ignore condition with the desired update_types to your config file.

If you change your mind, just re-open this PR and I'll resolve any conflicts on it.
