Unable to install 3.48.0 on Fedora 39 with Python 3.12
The recent release 3.48.0 is failing to build and install on Fedora 39. I see that gobject-introspection#488 (closed) mentions this error and that installing python3-setuptools should resolve this; however, I was only able to resolve this by adding setuptools to build-system.requires in pyproject.toml. Any other workarounds would be appreciated.
This can be reproduced with:
docker run --rm fedora:39 bash -c 'yum -y install cairo-gobject-devel gobject-introspection-devel python3-devel python3-pip python3-setuptools && python3 -m pip install PyGObject==3.48.0'Error:
