bart cannot be installed

Hello,
When attempting to install BART I get the following message:

pip install bart

        `numpy.distutils` is deprecated since NumPy 1.23.0, as a result
        of the deprecation of `distutils` itself. It will be removed for
        Python >= 3.12. For older Python versions it will remain present.
        It is recommended to use `setuptools < 60.0` for those Python versions.
        For more details, see:

Am I doing something wrong, or is it an issue in BART?
Thanks!
