There is a different problem with py3.12, too:

That only seems to happen with python 3.12 && security:forensics,
and the error message does not even make sense, of course it ends in usr/.
It is the trailing slash that apparently confuses it, but then the
library directory should be /usr/lib or /usr/lib64, not /usr. Looks
like the expansion of a variable with an empty value.
Correct. (There must be some copy and paste error. The current build
log of libevt does not have the unexpanded python312_bin_suffix in
that path:
[ 60s] /usr/bin/bash ../libtool --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c pyevt.la '/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/rt/usr/'
[ 60s] libtool: error: error: cannot install 'pyevt.la' to a directory not ending in /usr
Compare to the python3.10 iteration before:
[ 44s] /usr/bin/mkdir -p '/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/rt/usr/lib64/python3.10/site-packages'
[ 44s] /usr/bin/bash ../libtool --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c pyevt.la '/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/rt/usr/lib64/python3.10/site-packages'
So don't let yourself mislead you by the bogus error message. The
real problem is that python 3.12 removed distutils from the standard
library. Upstream's python autoconf macro depends on it. It's all
either solved by replacing distutils.sysconfig with sysconfig [1] or
providing distutils from setuptools in the interim [2].
