Source: rhythmbox
Version: 3.4.7-2
Severity: important
User: [email protected]
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
[email protected].
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

Oh, sorry about that. These really should have had build logs.
There now is a version of setuptools in experimental without the
dependency (again).
Looking at the build log I have, this was due to a test failure, not a
missing setuptools dep. You already build-depend on something else that
depends on python3-setuptools, so I don't even know if this package
actually requires it.
I think we can close this bug.

Yep, exactly that.
