Hi debian-python (2024.09.04_15:25:17_+0000)

Filed 418 bugs rather than the 340 odd I expected. Due to a mistake,
packages that FTBFS for other reasons may have got a bug too. I'll go
clean that up now.

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?users=debian-python@lists.debian.org&tag=dh-python-no-setuptools

Final text:

Severity: important
User: debian-python@lists.debian.org
Usertags: dh-python-no-setuptools
Tags: sid, trixie

This package failed build from source when test-built against a version
of dh-python without a python3-setuptools dependency.

distutils is no longer part of the Python standard library, since 3.12.
But a minimal version of it becomes available when the
python3-setuptools package is installed.

Please add a Build-Depends on python3-setuptools to your package, or
migrate the package's build system away from setuptools/distutils.

If you run into any difficulties, please raise them on
debian-python@lists.debian.org.

This bug has been filed at "important" severity, as the change hasn't
been made in dh-python yet, but this may be raised to RC before the
trixie release.

Thanks,

Stefano
