Yes, but in the process of deprecating disutils, some internals were changed to stop relying on it. This will cause a lot of downstream patches to break. I you are not modifying CPython, you don't need to worry, but if you are, then you should have a look and figure out how/where to patch it now. As far as the public distutils API is concerned, everything will still the same until 3.12, just with deprecation warnings. Development has moved to [1] and it will eventually be merged into setuptools. [1] https://github.com/pypa/distutils
