I can confirm with @szekowski that this is still a problem. It is why I am here today.

requirements.txt made yesterday, 2021-03-24 on Python 3.8.5 Django 3.1.7 and Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS inserts pkg-resources==0.0.0.

Furthermore, I would like to point out, if someone just updates their requirements because of one or two new or upgraded packages, they may not realize pkg-resources==0.0.0 is there, and maybe carried over for years and / or various editions of their requirements. You need to point this out to people.

However, taking that line out of my requirements.txt file does not solve my immediate issue, which is persistent rejection of my runtime.txt despite putting every version Heroku claims to support in there. That's why I had high hopes for the "just take pkg.resources out" solution.

Is the supposed ease of this self help solution - the one that did not work for me - contributing to the reason this isn't getting solved?!
