[Emanuele Alfano]

Hello,
I have noticed a deprecation warning appearing when launching any instance of Meld on my macOS system. I am using Meld version 3.21.0.osx4, installed via Homebrew.

/Applications/Meld.app/Contents/Resources/__boot__.py:118: DeprecationWarning: pkg_resources is deprecated as an API. See https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.html

• Operating System: macOS 14.2.1 (Apple M1 Pro)
• Meld Version: 3.21.0.osx4
• Installation Method: Homebrew

Steps to Reproduce the Issue:

1. Install Meld using the command brew install meld
2. Launch any instance of Meld.

Expected Outcome:
Meld should start without any deprecation warnings.
