Note: This error originates from the build backend, and is likely not a problem with poetry but with numpy (1.24.4) not supporting PEP 517 builds. You can verify this by running 'pip wheel --no-cache-dir --use-pep517 "numpy (==1.24.4)"'.

Building and publishing locally with poetry publish --build works just fine

Which version of python do you use locally?

7th line of the logs hint at the action using python 3.12 to do the build and python 3.12 did remove distutils from the standard library which does explain the ModuleNotFoundError.

If the build does work on your machine with previous version of python, you can either specify a different python version to poetry-publish (the second usage example show how to do just that).
