https://github.com/pothosware/SoapySDR/commit/1ee5670803f89b21d84a6a84acbb578da051c119 From 1ee5670803f89b21d84a6a84acbb578da051c119 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ryan Volz Date: Tue, 26 Sep 2023 14:56:59 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Remove deprecated use of distutils, fix for Python 3.12+ This switches to using sysconfig from distutils, which is necessary for Python 3.12+ since distutils is deprecated and has been removed. It is necessary to specify the install scheme when a prefix other than the Python default is used so that changes to the default scheme made by distributions (e.g. Debian, Fedora) do not produce an incorrect Python installation directory. For example, Debian patches the default scheme to prepend the path with '/local', but if a user specifies a prefix of '/usr/local', then the path using the default scheme would be '/usr/local/local/...' with a duplicated 'local' directory. Specifying an unmodified install scheme fixes that.
