Installation problem with Python 3.12

When installing the library under python 3.12, the library "pyFFTW" raises an error during installation:

The above error seems to be linked to an update on the python 3.12 setuptools library that pyFFTW is not updating. In python 3.12 the package importlib has been modified:

importlib
Many previously deprecated cleanups in [importlib](https://docs.python.org/3/library/importlib.html#module-importlib) have now been completed:

References to, and support for module_repr() has been removed. (Contributed by Barry Warsaw in [gh-97850](https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/97850).)

importlib.util.set_package, importlib.util.set_loader and importlib.util.module_for_loader have all been removed. (Contributed by Brett Cannon and Nikita Sobolev in [gh-65961](https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/65961) and [gh-97850](https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/97850).)

Support for find_loader() and find_module() APIs have been removed. (Contributed by Barry Warsaw in [gh-98040](https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/98040).)

importlib.abc.Finder, pkgutil.ImpImporter, and pkgutil.ImpLoader have been removed. (Contributed by Barry Warsaw in [gh-98040](https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/98040).)

And hence the error. I tried following our beloved ~~God~~ StackOverflow on this issue, but it does not seem to work...
