pytest-reportportal 5.4.1 and distutils

[fenchu]

Describe the bug
Regression? older versions seemed to work fine with python3.12

distutils is not in python3.12 - https://peps.python.org/pep-0632/

In Python 3.12, distutils will no longer be installed by make install or any of the first-party distribution. Third-party redistributors should no longer include distutils in their bundles or repositories.

Steps to Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
pip install pytest
pip install pytest-reportportal

run any pytest, do not even need to enable the plugin.

Expected behavior
nothing

Actual behavior

Our CI tests with reportportal stopped. All modules are built with latest versions

pytest .\tests\ --webhost=test12 --tenant=ikomm

Additional context

[fenchu]

There are lots of distutils.strtobool rout there t: https://github.com/symonsoft/str2bool

I had the follwoign in my code stolen from somwhere:

#!/usr/bin/env python3

_MAP = {
    'y': True,
    'yes': True,
    't': True,
    'true': True,
    'on': True,
    '1': True,
    'n': False,
    'no': False,
    'f': False,
    'false': False,
    'off': False,
    '0': False
}


def strtobool(value):
    try:
        return _MAP[str(value).lower()]
    except KeyError:
        raise ValueError('"{}" is not a valid bool value'.format(value))

I have the same issue. Note that until this is fixed, it can be circumvented by installing setuptools, which provides distutils.
