Comment (by Bruce Dubbs):

 v78.1.0
 - Restore access to _get_vc_env with a warning.


 v78.0.2
 - Postponed removals of deprecated dash-separated and uppercase fields in
 ``setup.cfg``.
   All packages with deprecated configurations are advised to move before
 2026.


 v78.0.0
 - Reverted distutils changes that broke the monkey patching of command
 classes.


 - Deprecations and Removals

 - Setuptools no longer accepts options containing uppercase or dash
 characters in ``setup.cfg``.
   Please ensure to write the options in ``setup.cfg`` using
   the :wiki:`lower_snake_case <Snake_case>` convention
   (e.g. ``Name => name``, ``install-requires => install_requires``).
   This is a follow-up on deprecations introduced in
   `v54.1.0 <https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/history.html#v54-1-0>`_
 and
   `v54.1.1 <https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/history.html#v54-1-1>`_ .
   -- note::
      This change *does not affect configurations in* ``pyproject.toml``
      (which uses the :wiki:`lower-kebab-case <Letter_case#Kebab_case>`
      convention following the precedent set in :pep:`517`/:pep:`518`).

 v77.0.3
 - Temporarily convert error for license glob patterns
   containing ``../`` into a deprecation warning to allow an
   accomodation period.
 - Better error messages for ``packaging.licenses`` import errors
   in environments with ``packaging<24.2``\.
   The import statement was also deferred to spare users that are not using
   license expressions.
 - Avoided eagerly raising an exception when ``license-files`` is defined
   simultaneously inside and outside of ``pyproject.toml``.
   Instead we rely on the existing deprecation error.

 v77.0.2
 - Restore ``distutils.ccompiler._default_compilers`` -- by
 :user:`ManiacDC`
 - Fixed copy pasta in ``msvc.shared_lib_format``\.

 v77.0.1
 - Manually fix news fragment entries causing CI to crash when building
 docs.


 v77.0.0
 - Added initial support for license expression
   (PEP :pep:`639 <639#add-license-expression-field>`).
 - Store ``License-File``\s in ``.dist-info/licenses`` subfolder and
   added support for recursive globs for ``license_files``
   (PEP :pep:`639 <639#add-license-expression-field>`).
 - Bump core metadata version to ``2.4``\. -- by :user:`cdce8p`
 - Updated vendored copy of ``wheel`` to ``v0.45.1``\.


 Deprecations and Removals
 - Added initial implementation of :pep:`639`.
   Users relying on pre- :pep:`639` implementation details
   (like precise license file paths inside ``dist-info`` directory)
   may need to adjust their code base to avoid problems.
   Deprecations and stronger validation were also introduced
 - Added exception (or warning) when deprecated license classifiers are
 used,
   according to PEP :pep:`639 <639#deprecate-license-classifiers>`.
 - Deprecated ``tools.setuptools.license-files`` in favor
   of ``project.license-files``  and added exception
   if ``project.license-files`` and ``tools.setuptools.license-files``
   are used together.
 - Deprecated ``project.license`` as a TOML table in
   ``pyproject.toml``\. Users are expected to move towards using
   ``project.license-files`` and/or SPDX expressions (as strings) in
   ``pyproject.license``\.
   See PEP :pep:`639 <639#deprecate-license-key-table-subkeys>`. (#4840)
 - Added simple validation for given glob patterns in ``license-files``\:
   a warning will be generated if no file is matched.
   Invalid glob patterns can raise an exception.

 v76.1.0
 - In setuptools.msvc.EnvironmentInfo, now honor the correct paths
   when on an ARM host.
 - Restored implicit distutils.ccompiler import for g-ir-scanner.
 - Restore ``distutils.ccompiler.compiler_class``
