Sorry, Rich, I've never dealt with this so someone else will have to give suggestions.
Thomas, This is all new to me, too.
I would try to see if there are any versions available. It could be that meson says it needs version x but only version y > x is available. Pip will quit but meson may very well work with the available version anyway. So I would try to install pkg_resources on its own, and then see if the meson build can succeed. No guarantees, but I've seen this work before. So python3.9 -m pip install --user pkg_resources Or, to see what versions if any are available: python3.9 -m pip install --user pkg_resources== # NO spaces allowed before the "==".
Thank you. I'll give this a try. Regards, Rich -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
