Drop Python 2 support, fix forward-compatibility

Simon McVittie requested to merge 310-ci into master
  • CI: Disable documentation build with Python 3.10

    The version of sphinx in Ubuntu impish is not currently fully compatible with Python 3.10.

  • build: Use sysconfig in preference to distutils.util

    distutils is deprecated and likely to be removed in Python 3.12.

  • Remove support for Python 2

    Python 2 reached EOL on 2020-01-01, and the latest version of AX_PYTHON_DEVEL breaks the build with Python 2. This seems as good a time as any to drop compatibility.

  • m4: Update AX_PYTHON_DEVEL for better forward-compatibility

  • build: Make sure distcheck installs into our ${prefix}

  • build: Use LT_INIT instead of deprecated AC_PROG_LIBTOOL

    This has been available since at least libtool 1.9b (2004).

  • build: Update bug reporting URL

  • .gitignore: Ignore build-system backup files

  • build: Use AS_HELP_STRING instead of deprecated AC_HELP_STRING

    This has been available since at least autoconf 2.59c (2006).
