This package still uses the legacy eclass code paths. These paths are deprecated and pose a significant maintenance cost. Please update the package to use PEP517 build mode. For more information, please see the Python Guide, particularly; https://projects.gentoo.org/python/guide/migration.html#migrating-to-pep-517-builds
[Adding this comment en-masse, sorry for the noise, but it's important.) 1. Please take particular care to check file diffs before/after, possibly using `iwdevtools`. Keep a particular eye out for e.g. config files now missing from /etc and instead being in /usr/lib/python*/site-packages, etc. 2. Please make sure to do the migration in a new revision in ~arch, partly because of 1.
The conversion to setuptools in this ebuild is important for python 3.12. I have not tested the gentoo ebuild with python 3.12 but I think the output would look similar. https://github.com/stefantalpalaru/gentoo-overlay/issues/139 >>> Source configured. >>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/dev-python/wxpython-4.2.1-r2/work/wxPython-4.2.1 ... * python3_11: running distutils-r1_run_phase python_compile /var/tmp/portage/dev-python/wxpython-4.2.1-r2/work/wxPython-4.2.1-python3_11/build.py:43: DeprecationWarning: The distutils package is deprecated and slated for removal in Python 3.12.

Final ping. Please note that we will not hesitate to last rite low profile packages over this.
