Does not build python module for python 3.12 #2819

Open pbsds opened 2 months ago

pbsds commented 2 months ago

PEP-632 is upon us, and distutils is no longer a part of the default python distribution as of version 3.12, which causes the configure script to fail to locate Python.h.

Our current workaround consists of replacing distutils with setuptools._distutils in:

configure.ac
doc/docs/setup.py
python/visualization.py
