Title:
  mgr: failed dependency - no module named distutils

Status in ceph package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ceph source package in Noble:
  Fix Committed
Status in ceph source package in Oracular:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]
  dashboard and volume ceph mgr modules fail to activate under Python 3.12 due to use of distutils.

  [ Test Plan ]
  sudo snap install --channel latest/edge/core24 microceph
  sudo microceph cluster bootstrap
  sudo microceph status

  for proposed testing we'll bake a core24-proposed snap to test with.

  [ Where problems could occur ]
  The proposed patch switches to using the vendored distutils in setuptools for the two imports in the ceph mgr modules that exhibit this issue - this is a minimal fix; codebase really needs refactoring to drop all use of distutils but that's outside of the scope on an SRU update.

  Other distutils usage gets caught by the distutils_hack that
  setuptools uses to inject its vendored copy into the distutils module
  location.

  [ Original Bug Report ]
  When running microceph on a core24 base, the ceph-mgr has errors on enabling specific modules - volume and dashboard.

  $ sudo microceph.ceph status
    cluster:
      id:     4e3ff87c-5320-4494-9d3c-42e69cc11398

  distutils as a standalone package was removed from noble - the ceph
  codebase makes quite a bit of use of distuils still which gets picked
  up by the distutils_hack in setuptools but not in the context of the
  mgr daemon.
