Description

Compile as in PROTON-2145, that means

mkdir _build
cd _build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local\
  -DSYSINSTALL_BINDINGS=ON\
  -DBUILD_STATIC_LIBS=ON\
  -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF\
  -DBUILD_WITH_CXX=ON\
  -DENABLE_FUZZ_TESTING=OFF\
  -DFUZZ_REGRESSION_TESTS=OFF

make -j4
make install

When I don't have python3-distutils installed, I get

-- Could NOT find Doxygen (missing: DOXYGEN_EXECUTABLE) 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils.sysconfig'
-- Looking for Python module sphinx - not found
-- Looking for Python module sphinx_automodapi - not found
-- Sphinx modules not found; doc generation disabled.
