Additional info - these are the setuptools versions I have pre-installed:

setuptools 71.0.1
setuptools-git 1.2

[Djtrip83]

Workaround in place for now (for those stuck that needs a quick solution) but not ideal so please update this very good package :)

Step after all other packages (incl. setuptools and excl. pygeohash) are installed/imported:

• !pip install --upgrade setuptools==70.0.0 ##interim to step to meet pygeohash compatibility
• !pip install pygeohash
• import pygeohash as pgh
