[BUG]

[hmpaverd]

Describe the bug
Installing from source fails because of what appears to be an issue with Versioneer (possible incompatibility with Python 3.12).

PyRadiomics log file
After cloning the git repo and running python3 setup.py install, I get the following error:

/Users/user/Work/pyradiomics/versioneer.py:418: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\s'
LONG_VERSION_PY['git'] = '''
Traceback (most recent call last):

I also had trouble with installing pyradiomics.
I'm on Windows 10. I have Python 3.12.3 installed.
Firstly I tried to install it via pip, and I got same error as you.
Then I attempted to use older Python version (3.7.17, compiled from source on Windows) or Anaconda, but I still had some issues with (if I remember correctly) NumPy or Jupyter lab.
Finally, same as you, I cloned pyradiomics repo and tried to install it from source. I got same error as you, and same as when using pip. I modified setup.py file by commenting out versioneer related stuff:

#!/usr/bin/env python

from distutils import sysconfig
import platform

import numpy
from setuptools import Extension, setup
# import versioneer

if platform.architecture()[0].startswith('32'):
  raise Exception('PyRadiomics requires 64 bits python')

# commands = versioneer.get_cmdclass()
incDirs = [sysconfig.get_python_inc(), numpy.get_include()]

ext = [Extension("radiomics._cmatrices", ["radiomics/src/_cmatrices.c", "radiomics/src/cmatrices.c"],
                 include_dirs=incDirs),
       Extension("radiomics._cshape", ["radiomics/src/_cshape.c", "radiomics/src/cshape.c"],
                 include_dirs=incDirs)]

setup(
  name='pyradiomics',

  # version=versioneer.get_version(),
  # cmdclass=commands,

  packages=['radiomics', 'radiomics.scripts'],
  ext_modules=ext,
  zip_safe=False
)

After this, I was able to succesfully install pyradiomics. And apparently it works.
Yes, I know, this is ugly workaround.

Thank you so much for commenting! I found the same problem with the versioneer file - I think I ended up installing it directly from source and omitting in the set-up file (like you), as it uses a deprecated python function. It would be great if the authors could fix it!
