distutils was dropped from Python 3.12. Fortunately, our usage of
android-ndk only relied on distutils.dir_util.copy_tree() in
build/tools/make_standalone_toolchain.py which
is easy to replace with shutil.copytree(). That is done via a small
patch.
Note that there are more references to distutils in the following
files but it looks like our CI/CD flows aren't affected by those:
sources/third_party/shaderc/third_party/spirv-tools/utils/generate_registry_tables.py
sources/third_party/vulkan/src/scripts/update_deps.py
prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/python2.7-config
prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/python-config
prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/python2-config
various files under prebuilt/linux-x86_64/lib/python2.7/
python-packages/fastboot/setup.py
python-packages/adb/setup.py
The target_platform option has always be wrongly named.
This is not the platform we are targeted but how we compile.
This was ok at beginning as specifying how we compile somehow define
for what we compile but this is not a one to one mapping.
It mainly allow to run command in directory containing space.
(Hello, `C:\Program Files\...`)
It would also allow to work on directory containning spaces
(`C:\Users\John Doe`) but xapian configure (at least) expressly doesn't
support it :/
- Run the command without shell=True
- The command must be a list instead of a string.
- All options must also be a list (or an iterable).
