Description
Starting with setuptools version 66.0.0, legacy package version names such as `0.23ubuntu1` are no longer supported. Since some of our Python dependencies use this format, we have pinned the setuptools version to the last version before this change (see #17098). This unblocked CI but going forward we have to check our Python dependencies and upgrade them / rebase our forks of them if needed.
