pygame 2.5.2 was released and merged in #271586. Is there any reason to keep 2.4.0?

2.5.2 on master fails to build, could you fix it if 2.4.0 is not needed?

distutils and buildconfig module not found

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/build/source/buildconfig/config.py", line 207, in main
    import config_unix as CFG
  File "/build/source/buildconfig/config_unix.py", line 7, in 
    from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_inc
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils'
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Is there any reason to keep 2.4.0?

If the packages that use it, don't support 2.5. Can we all upgrade them to the newest version?

distutils and buildconfig module not found

Distutils should only be an issue for python 3.12. Can we fix the other issue?

Also can we drop the old version of SDL2_image? That would be awesome.

Need to resolve conflicts and good idea to get latest version (2.5.2).

pygame is indeed at 2.5.2 on master, however. Closing.
