            Bug ID: 2154819
           Summary: ibus fails to build with Python 3.12:

ibus fails to build with Python 3.12.0a3.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/g-ir-scanner", line 94, in <module>
    from giscanner.utils import dll_dirs
  File "/usr/lib64/gobject-introspection/giscanner/utils.py", line 355, in
<module>
    import distutils.cygwinccompiler
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils'

Remove the distutils package. It was deprecated in Python 3.10 by PEP 632
“Deprecate distutils module”. For projects still using distutils and cannot be
updated to something else, the setuptools project can be installed: it still
provides distutils. (Contributed by Victor Stinner in gh-92584.)

If your package is listed in [0], you may workaround this issue by
BuildRequiring python-setuptols, note that adding such BuildRequires might
however hide some transitive dependency problem, if the distutils import comes
from a dependency.
Cooperation with upstream is recommended. Additional context [1].

For all our attempts to build ibus with Python 3.12, see:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.12/package/ibus/

Testing and mass rebuild of packages is happening in copr. You can follow these
instructions to test locally in mock if your package builds with Python 3.12:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.12/

Let us know here if you have any questions.

Python 3.12 is planned to be included in Fedora 39. To make that update
smoother, we're building Fedora packages with all pre-releases of Python 3.12.
A build failure prevents us from testing all dependent packages (transitive
[Build]Requires), so if this package is required a lot, it's important for us
to get it fixed soon.
We'd appreciate help from the people who know this package best, but if you
don't want to work on this now, let us know so we can try to work around it on
our side.
