distutils not found about garmindb

[tcgoetz]

I need more info. distutils is not in the product or dev requirements.txt files and is also not in my build environment:

Can you give more context on where the import line is coming from?

NP, here's the full output from running 'pip install GarminDB.
Please forgive any unforced rookie errors.

Ok, so GarminDb pins matplotlib==3.7.2 which requires numpy-1.25.2.tar.gz. On your system matplotlib==3.7.2 requires distutils.core, but not on my system. I don't have an immediate answer on why this is happening. Can you run GarminDb in a virtual environment (venv) with 3.11? GarminDb is currently tested with 3.11.

Please retry with 3.5.1+. The main package no longer has a dependency on matplotlib.
