Fail to install in python >=3.12 #609
Description
Using pip install basemap, raise exception ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils.util'
Solved by pip install setuptools, then raise exception AttributeError: module 'pkgutil' has no attribute 'ImpImporter'. Did you mean: 'zipimporter'?
Downgrade to python 3.10 to solve.

Can you checkout #611? If there are some issues I can include it in the PR

Based on this Stack Overflow issue, your problem appears to be the use of an outdated version of
pipwhich contains symbols removed in Python 3.12, so I would expect that this is not a direct problem caused bybasemap, but by yourpipinstallation.I would suggest that you try to upgrade
pipand installbasemapagain. If this still does not work, please feel free to reopen the issue.
