Bug 933726 – sys-process/audit-3.1.1[python_targets_python3_12]: missing dev-python/setuptools dependency : "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils'" leading build failure later in the build

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Will Lepofsky 2024-06-07 12:53:50 UTC]

During the upgrade to Python 3.12, sys-process/audit returns the following:

libtool:   error: only absolute run-paths are allowed

Same things happens with sys-process/audit-3.1.2.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge -NuDav --changed-deps @world
Actual Results:

[Comment 3 Alfred Wingate 2024-06-07 13:11:35 UTC]

So another distutils dropped from python3.12 bug, this time it failed silently leading to the rpath error from libtool.

To get around this before an ebuild fix install dev-python/setuptools with python3.12 target enabled.

    sys-process/audit: add missing BDEPEND for setuptools
    
    With python3.12, distutils isn't included with the interpreter but is
    instead bundled in setuptools. Add a conditional dependency for it when
    python3.12 is enabled.
