pycsw-admin.py importlib errors on Windows

[jmckenna]

Description

Building with pycsw-master (because pycsw-2.6.1 through pip causes python39.dll errors, as this is with Python 3.10.0 embedded), loading pycsw GetCapabilities request through the browser with mod_wsgi has no issues, however, on the commandline:

pycsw-admin.py -h

throws the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\ms4w\Python\Scripts\pycsw-admin.py-script.py", line 33, in <module>
    sys.exit(load_entry_point('pycsw==3.0.dev0', 'console_scripts', 'pycsw-admin.py')())

Environment

• operating system: Windows
• Python version: 3.10.0
• pycsw version: 3.0.dev0
• source/distribution
  • [x ] git clone
    • built for MS4W, on Visual Studio 2019
  • [ ] DebianGIS/UbuntuGIS
  • [ ] PyPI
  • [ ] zip/tar.gz
  • [ ] other (please specify):
  • [ ]
• web server
  • [ x] Apache/mod_wsgi
  • [ ] CGI
  • [ ] other (please specify):

Steps to Reproduce

python setup.py build
python setup.py install

Additional Information

In an old pycsw-2.6.0 installation (where I used pip install), has the following contents of /Python/Lib/site-packages/

pycsw
pycsw-2.6.0.dist-info (that contains METADATA etc)

Whereas with this 3.0.dev0 install /Python/Lib/site-packages/ only has:

pycsw-3.0.dev0-py3.10.egg
  pycsw
  EGG-INFO

Discussion

I'm thinking I did something wrong with the install steps, but, I don't see any difference in my steps above. Advice needed :)

I think the /site-packages/ structure is fine, but I do notice much changes in the pycsw-admin.py-script.py file, checking for metadata etc (compared to an old pycsw-2.6.0 one).
