Hi, everyone.
TL;DR: how to deal with setuptools (and newer distutils vendored by

I know I'm reiterating the same topic but I think we're coming to having
to actually do something about this and I still haven't found
a satisfactory solution

installs hacks that override distutils with their own bundled version.
For this reason, the check no longer works reliably and even if it were,
we will eventually be requiring setuptools on all Python packages.
