Details
Resolves #459 by removing setuptools as a core requirement in lightning-utilities. As far as I can see, the removal should not affect anything.Note: for local tests of CLI, I had to manually point it to the virtual environment. Right now, the test attempts to access the global Python on the OS.
What does this PR do?
Resolves #459.
