Dependencies that (still) depend on pkg_resources

[hmpf]

While with #2798 NAV itself no longer uses pkg_resources for anything, there are still warnings when running tests:

jnpr

.tox/unit-py37-django32/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py:2871
  /source/.tox/unit-py37-django32/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py:2871: DeprecationWarning: Deprecated call to `pkg_resources.declare_namespace('jnpr')`.
  Implementing implicit namespace packages (as specified in PEP 420) is preferred to `pkg_resources.declare_namespace`. See https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/references/keywords.html#keyword-namespace-packages
    declare_namespace(pkg)

This library is a sub-dependency of something else.

This library is explicitly declared in "requirements/base.txt". There has been no new versions of this since 2021 and it is still on setup.py. It is BSD-licensed so it should be possible to vendor the code.

jnpr is actually the main namespace of the junos-eznc package, which is a requirement of the JunOS driver of the NAPALM library. Maybe we should file a bug report with https://github.com/Juniper/py-junos-eznc ?

Usage is directly from this file: https://github.com/Juniper/py-junos-eznc/blob/master/lib/jnpr/init.py

This library is explicitly declared in "requirements/base.txt". There has been no new versions of this since 2021 and it is still on setup.py. It is BSD-licensed so it should be possible to vendor the code.

A quick search seems to reveal there may be several packages that provide this same functionality, so we might also look into migrating to something else.

This library is a sub-dependency of something else.

twisted has a dependency to the package zope-interface. We are currently attempting to upgrade our twisted dependency, which may or may not affect this.

Assigning @johannaengland for now, mostly to look at the sphinxcontrib-programoutput part of the issue

twisted has a dependency to the package zope-interface. We are currently attempting to upgrade our twisted dependency, which may or may not affect this.

It does not, the current release of twisted still uses the same version of zope-interface as the version we currently use (22.8.0) uses.
