Description
compliance_checker/suite.py is generating the UserWarning below:
`pkg_resources is deprecated as an API. See https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.html. The pkg_resources package is slated for removal as early as 2025-11-30. Refrain from using this package or pin to Setuptools`
If it is being deprecated end of November it would be good to implement an alternative.
