setuptools 67.7.0 and higher now (as of Oct 2023...) error over license_file in setup.cfg

https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/commit/73b5c62939cd2ef039da9d5f784083fa956ef4a1#diff-be02e6c16d3b55547f6432c4130b888a086dca03cbea525aa314b3de6b4f69daL576

which is used in

https://github.com/python-cffi/cffi/blob/38bd6be6b94a65182f4bffb45c78e230e9290f51/setup.cfg#L2-L3

so you cannot build any tagged version of cffi.
