`discover_post_import_hooks()` fails when `setuptools` is not installed

Opening an issue here as well since this is where I actually found the issue.

Hopefully this is addressed by changes in wrapt package.

Can you install wrapt as:

pip install --no-index https://github.com/GrahamDumpleton/wrapt/archive/refs/heads/develop.zip

and verify.

Thanks.

pip install https://github.com/GrahamDumpleton/wrapt/archive/refs/heads/develop.zip

Hi @GrahamDumpleton, our change in the wrapt package did address this issue. I verified (on Python 3.8 and 3.12) with the above command because --no-index was causing the below issues.

% pip install --no-index https://github.com/GrahamDumpleton/wrapt/archive/refs/heads/develop.zip

I should have known that would occur with latest Python versions.

Would have needed to run:

pip cache remove 'wrapt*'

The point being that since using develop version wanted to make sure a cache version was not used since version hasn't change since last may have tried to use develop version.

If the way you create your environments ensures that cache is skipped then would have been okay then.
