ISSO comments currently not working

If you want to leave me a comment feel free to do so using the mail address provided on the About page. As currently the ISSO comments plugin isn't working.

The reason is, that I upgraded the OS of this server from Debian Bookworm to Debian Trixie. Trixie ships Python 3.13. And with Python 3.12 the pkg_resources Modul was deprecated. ISSO however depends on this module.

Sadly Debian Bookworm shipped Python 3.11, hence I didn't catch the deprecation warning.

And while Debian Trixie does ship a python3-pkg-resources package, this still doesn't help as the other dependencies already depends on importlib_resources and thus not everything plays together.

Also the last ISSO release is from February 2023. *sigh*

Seems like another good reason to switch to Kirby. And they are currently offering a 20% discount on the license price. If that isn't a sign..

I still have to open the ISSO GitHub issue regarding the pkg_resources module and Python 3.13 but as I'm currently in my holiday and sitting at the pool this isn't a priority for me. 😁
