distutils package is deprecated

[hegjon]

From build log when building RPM package

/builddir/build/BUILD/auto_remote_sync-1.0.5/setup.py:3: DeprecationWarning: The distutils package is deprecated and slated for removal in Python 3.12. Use setuptools or check PEP 632 for potential alternatives
  import distutils

It might be that the RPM build macros are the issue

It might be that the RPM build macros are the issue

They are not. The setup.py imports distutils, which is deprecated and will be removed in Python 3.12. This should use setuptools.setup() instead.

Other suggestions:

• The setup.py imports the package itself to extract __version__. That is not the correct way to extract __version__ from the package and is bad practice that has multiple potential pitfalls. See https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/guides/single-sourcing-package-version/.
• It'd be better to use entry_points instead of scripts. See https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/userguide/entry_point.html.

One of the pitfalls is that the RPM tool that want to read the dependencies, will fail if the dependency is not installed:
