Latest fail2ban in trunk is broken with python 3.12

[jfqd]

Error message ist: "ERROR No module named 'asynchat'". Got it fixed with:

pkgin in py312-setuptools py312-pip
pip-3.12 install pyasyncore pyasynchat

Maybe you can add the three dependencies setuptools, pyasyncore and pyasynchat to the latest fail2ban build?

Only adding setuptools was not enough, see the comment in this pr.

Rather than working around the older version, I've updated fail2ban to the latest release which supports python312. Please could you give it a test and let me know if it works as expected?

$ pkg_add -U https://us-central.manta.mnx.io/pkgsrc/public/test-packages/fail2ban-1.1.0.tgz

If it all looks ok I'll commit the update and get it into the trunk repository. Thanks!

@jperkin Thanks a lot for taking the time to update fail2ban! Installed the test package without any issues. Process was restarted and is running.

Will fail2ban update normally or do I need to uninstall the test package and install it again from our regular pkgsrc mirror?

@jperkin Are there any reasons why fail2ban 1.1.0 is not yet in trunk?
