On python 3.13+ we don't support the fallback to the
pkg_resourcesmetadata backend, and don't attempt to detect.egginstalled distributions (#12330).In effect, this means
pkg_resourcesis never used at all by pip on python 3.13 (to the best of my knowledge).This does not mean we will not want to drop support for the pkg_resources backend before we drop support for python 3.12, but at least this places a limit on it.
@pypa/pip-committers what do you think?
