Package: python-setuptools
Version: 33.1.1-1~bpo8+1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I'm trying to rebuild the jessie-backports version of python-setuptools 
in a clean and up-to-date Jessie pbuilder chroot, but it fails with the
following obscure error:

# dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us
dpkg-buildpackage: source package python-setuptools
dpkg-buildpackage: source version 33.1.1-1~bpo8+1
dpkg-buildpackage: source distribution jessie-backports

Is there any missing dependency from jessie-backports that's needed to
successfully build it? Any other issue/idea?

Thanks!
