This is an RFC, because I'm not really sure if this is how it should be
solved. I'm not even that sure about the root cause of the problem
TBH... I got this error in my Docker image, based on Debian 12, running
Python 3.11. Without taking a deep dive, all I could find on the
internet was "update distutils or update python" - I guess this patch is
the latter.

If you have a better idea, know the reason for this or you just think
that this is just wrong, feel free to comment.
