Error running python3 setup.py install: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils'

Issue Title:

Error running python3 setup.py install: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils'

Issue Description:

When attempting to run python3 setup.py install in the directory /home/andres/m64py/mupen64plus-ui-python, the following error occurs:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/andres/m64py/mupen64plus-ui-python/setup.py", line 13, in <module>
    import distutils
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils'

To resolve this issue, I initially tried to install python3-distutils-extra using the following command:

sudo apt install python3-distutils-extra

The installation was successful with no errors reported. However, upon running python3 setup.py install again, the error persists:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/andres/m64py/mupen64plus-ui-python/setup.py", line 13, in <module>
    import distutils
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils'

I then attempted to install python3-distutils, but received a message indicating that the package does not exist in my Kubuntu 24.04 environment.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Clone the mupen64plus-ui-python repository.
2. Navigate to the mupen64plus-ui-python directory.
3. Execute python3 setup.py install.

Proposed Solution:

A solution is needed to ensure that the distutils module is properly configured and accessible for python3 in the specified m64py-env environment.

Environment:

• Operating System: Kubuntu 24.04
• Python: python3

Any further assistance in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.
