distutils is deprecated as of Python 3.10 #573

Closed riddell-stan closed 1 year ago

riddell-stan commented 2 years ago

distutils is deprecated, per PEP 632. httpstan should stop using it.

I think this should be easy. I believe setuptools provides the functions/classes from distutils we currently use.

Looks like distutils will be removed in Python 3.12.

(note: setuptools version 48 and higher contains a copy of distutils.)

Ubuntu 20.04 does not ship with setuptools version 48 or higher (it ships with setuptools 45). Addressing this could safely wait until the release for Python 3.12.

FYI: release date for 3.12 is: 3.12.0 final: Monday, 2023-10-02

An issue related to this seems to be appearing on ArviZ CI even though it uses Python 3.9: https://dev.azure.com/ArviZ/ArviZ/_build/results?buildId=5902&view=logs&j=7f538728-4589-5563-0e87-d0823eb40420&t=ca181c57-2f6c-5cc2-019c-e7792481591d&l=81. Any ideas why or potential workarounds?

Not sure. I doubt it's related. "msvccompiler" suggests something related to Windows. Windows is not supported by httpstan.

Upon reflection, this can be fixed today. There are no problems for Ubuntu 20.04. Remember to add setuptools>=48 to the list of runtime requirements.
