This module has long since been deprecated but was removed in the 82.0.0 release on 2026-02-08. As a result deploys began to fail as the python agent could no longer find the module.&nbsp;<BR /><BR />Our workaround was to pin `setuptools==81.0.0` for now</P> Mon, 09 Feb 2026 17:13:31 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-AppDynamics/AppDynamics-Agent-using-deprecated-setuptools/m-p/758184#M12007 Mike_Iden 2026-02-09T17:13:31Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-AppDynamics/AppDynamics-Agent-using-deprecated-setuptools/m-p/758185#M12008 <P>Setuptools changelog<BR /><A href="https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/history.html#v82-0-0" target="_blank">https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/history.html#v82-0-0</A>&nbsp;</P> Mon, 09 Feb 2026 17:17:24 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-AppDynamics/AppDynamics-Agent-using-deprecated-setuptools/m-p/758185#M12008 Mike_Iden 2026-02-09T17:17:24Z
