[XEN PATCH v2 0/5] python: Use setuptools instead of the deprecated distutils
Posted by Javi Merino 7 months, 2 weeks ago
This series picks up Marek's v1 from
https://lore.kernel.org/xen-devel/20230316171634.320626-1-marmarek@invisiblethingslab.com/
Changes since v1:
  - Update all containers to have setuptools, as python 3.12 depecrates distutils in favour of setuptools
  - Keep python2's support by falling back to distutils if setuptools is not installed
  - Drop the commit about raising the baseline requirement for python, as we keep supporting python2

Javi Merino (2):
  automation: add python3's setuptools to containers
  README: update to remove old note about the build system's python
    expectation

Marek Marczykowski-Górecki (3):
  tools: convert setup.py to use setuptools
  tools: don't use distutils in configure nor Makefile
  tools: regenerate configure

Two general notes.

First, because you've (re)arranged and posted this series, you need to
add your own Signed-off-by line to all patches, even unmodified ones
Marek's that you've included.  SoB needs to be from everyone involved in
handling the patch.

Second, patch 4 should be dropped, and a note put in patch 2 to the
committer, who will use autoconf 2.69 and have a far far smaller delta
to include.

I have regenerated it with 2.69 and the diff for tools/configure is
reduced to:
