pywal broken on Arch update

[gianmarcogg03]

I have Arch Linux on the zen kernel 5.15.7 and after a full system upgrade pywal broke and gives this error every time I try running it.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/wal", line 33, in <module>
    sys.exit(load_entry_point('pywal==3.3.1', 'console_scripts', 'wal')())
  File "/usr/bin/wal", line 22, in importlib_load_entry_point
    for entry_point in distribution(dist_name).entry_points
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/importlib/metadata/__init__.py", line 919, in distribution
    return Distribution.from_name(distribution_name)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/importlib/metadata/__init__.py", line 518, in from_name
    raise PackageNotFoundError(name)
importlib.metadata.PackageNotFoundError: No package metadata was found for pywal

Did you get pywal from AUR? If so, you need to rebuild/reinstall it (and other AUR python packages) after the 3.10 update.
