Bug 280251: py-setuptools broken after py311 update
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=280251



--- Description ---
After the recent update (using packages) to python 3.11 as default Python,
setuptools doesn't work anymore.

Basically ever build that uses setuptools fails in the same way;

Example; trying to build a new setuptools:

root@elysium:/usr/ports/devel/py-setuptools # make
===>  License MIT accepted by the user
===>   py311-setuptools-63.1.0_1 depends on file: /usr/local/sbin/pkg - found
=> setuptools-63.1.0.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist in
/usr/ports/distfiles/python.
=> Attempting to fetch
https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/source/s/setuptools/setuptools-63.1.0.t
ar.gz
setuptools-63.1.0.tar.gz			      2538 kB	14 MBps    00s
