Technically, yes : it's a standalone module that depends only on the stdlib. What would be the use case for this ? I don't think it's the best practice to bundle other projects modules like that in most cases. > > Also, is that `pkg_resources` module different than the one that comes with > setuptools? It is the same API and behavior. It has a few internals changes though to deal with the incompatibility with the Setuptools project, but is meant to work as a full replacement.
