Install the project...
/usr/bin/cmake -P cmake_install.cmake
-- Install configuration: "None"
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/build-py3.12/swig/python/setup.py", line 14,

     from setuptools.command.build_ext import build_ext

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils'


so this fails because distutils is removed in 3.12.  And the build 
system ignores the build failure.
