Ugh. dealing with Python application packaging is a never-ending game of whack-a-mole. setup.py is being deprecated but I haven't seen any replacements with the same capabilities, that can be easily integrated into package managers like apt or yum/dnf. Does anyone have any ideas?

Not sure what you mean by "easily integrated into package managers like apt or yum/dnf", but the two main PEP-517 compliant installers seem to be flit and poetry. Flit is simpler and more bare-bones, while poetry lets you do more stuff, but is also more complex and heavy. FWIW, the PEP-517 standard interface is now supported by pybuild in Debian, which means it's as easy to build Debian packages as it was using setuptools.
