Hi!
While rebuilding the python related packages against the Python 3.15rc1
version we found that python-installer fails to build from source [1].
The problem can be fixed applying upstream's commit 97609d8: Use
os.path.commonpath over commonprefix (#345) [2].
I applied the upstream fix in the sandbox [3] to be able to build the
packages that depend on python-installer, please consider applying the
patch to support the upcoming 3.15 version.
Happy hacking,

Subject: Use os.path.commonpath over commonprefix (#345)
commonprefix was deprecated in Python 3.15 as it does a
character-by-character check which is 99% likely to be not what you
actually want.
commonpath does the sane thing of returning only valid paths (aka
respecting the directory structure).
