pkg_resources was part of setuptools until 81.0. It got deprecated in 82.0 so if you downversion it you should have it available

#

you can do pip install to get it back to 81
pip install setuptools==81.0

Or maybe people should check the library first instead of suggesting a "fix" that is not a real fix?

#

!pypi lang2vec the library was last updated in 2019. Before python2 even went out of life.

Meaning OP probably shouldn't use it - it's better to find some maintained fork

#

And only try to find setuptools version if there's no alternative
