setuptools installation with certain packages seems to be failing due to known issue.

Error I am seeing installing certain packages with the python buildpack version of python v1.8.25

AttributeError: module 'setuptools.dist' has no attribute 'check_test_suite'

pypa/setuptools#4519 Looking here it seems to be a known issue with certain versions of "setuptools" where 72.0 packages seem to have a bug associated with building where it fails for certain packages that use it. I was wondering, is there a way to workaround this issue with the buildpack? Such as setting a different version of the setuptools package?

#954 seems like we have a pull request to address this issue, any ETA on when this will get released/merged?
