The
pythonx.x-distutils
package provided the standarddistutils
module for our Ubuntu container Python environment.In the deadsnakes PPA python3.12.7-1+jammy1 to python3.12.8-1+jammy1 update on 12/04/2024, the following diff was made:
https://launchpadlibrarian.net/761821028/python3.12_3.12.7-1+jammy1_3.12.8-1+jammy1.diff.gz
In that,
python3.12-distutils
is no longer a built package per PEP-0632. Therefore, it is removed from the container using Python 3.12 and some subsequent Python code updates may need to made for compatibility.This change is specifically focused on fixing the Ubuntu 22.04 (jammy) container build.
Marked as a breaking change since
distutils
will no longer be installed in the container.
