Research direction
Start by reproducing the pkg_resources behavior with Python 3.10 and locate the installation-related implementation and tests; the issue names no files or tests. Done means Python 3.10 is distinguished from Python 3.1 without regressing existing version handling. The migrated metadata records the underlying issue as fixed, so first verify whether any work remains.
