Hi!

While rebuilding the python related packages against the Python 3.15rc1
version we found that python-repoze.who fails to build from source [1].

The build errors when trying to use the deprecated pkg_resources. I
found that the upstream patch to modernize the build tooling takes care
of the problem [2].

I applied the upstream fix in the sandbox [3] to be able to build the
packages that depend on python-repoze.who, please consider applying the
patch to support the upcoming 3.15 version.

Happy hacking,
