Generally ports should be using python 3.12 at this time. (It's 3.12, not 3.1.2.)
Unfortunately, determining which python version is used for what is a bit confusing here:
- totem has variants to let you select which python version it uses: python38, python39, python310. The default is python310. Ideally we would add python311 and python312 to that list and make python312 the default since python312 is the currently recommended version.
- totem uses meson. meson uses python312.
- totem uses gtk-doc. gtk-doc has variants to let you select which python version it uses: python38, python39, python310, python311, python312. The default is python312.
The warnings about invalid escape sequences are new in python 3.12 and we've seen them in many other ports when updating them to python 3.12. As far as I know these are only warnings and don't affect functionality but should still be fixed. See https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html
And yes you're right the error seems to be:
