>>> Describe the solution you'd like
Import succeeds without other actions.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Either downgrade to Python 3.11, or installing setuptools manually via pip install setuptools
Additional context
Python 3.12 release notes https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.12.html
gh-95299: Do not pre-install setuptools in virtual environments created with venv. This means that distutils, setuptools, pkg_resources, and easy_install will no longer available by default; to access these run pip install setuptools in the activated virtual environment.
