For ./configure failing with:

checking for the distutils Python package... no
configure: error: cannot import Python module "distutils".
<string>:1: DeprecationWarning: The distutils package is deprecated and 
slated for removal in Python 3.12. Use setuptools or check PEP 632 for 
potential alternatives

The m4/python-devel.whatever file checks if the output `python -c 
'distutils'` is not empty which makes it fail as it shows a deprecation 
warning. A quick workaround is calling ./configure with:

PYTHONWARNINGS=ignore ./configure

Good luck with the rebuilds!
