Hello,

I want to use `pkg_resources` to retrieve an image file from a Python package. But I want to do this without importing the actual package. Is this possible using `pkg_resources`, or does it import the package?

It imports the package, as it needs to know what loader object was used, to know whether it will be reading from a zipfile or whatever else.
