AnthonyZhOon opened a new issue, #13337:
URL: https://github.com/apache/datafusion/issues/13337
### Describe the bug
The `distutils` module has been removed from the standard library in python
3.12 in favour of the
`setuptools` package providing and maintaining the module. See [PEP 632 -
Deprecate distutils module](https://peps.python.org/pep-0632/) for why it has
been removed.
As a consequence, the build script for the docs now fails when using python
3.12
### To Reproduce
Using python 3.12 to create a venv, install the requirements.txt and run
the build script results in an error for a missing `distutils` module.
I personally use `uv` as a tool to manage python venvs and dependencies.
```bash
$ uv venv
$ uv pip install -r requirements.txt
$ source .venv/bin/activate
$ ./build.sh
Running Sphinx v8.1.3
loading translations [en]... done
making output directory... done
Extension error:
Could not import extension pydata_sphinx_theme (exception: No module named
'distutils')
make: *** [Makefile:38: html] Error 2
```
### Expected behavior
I expect to be able to build the documentation successfully using python
3.12.
### Additional context
A simple fix is adding the `setuptools` package with version >= 48.0.0 (when
distutils was added) to the `requirements.txt`.
