After installing python3-versiontools importing the module versiontools
into a python interpreter fails with the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/versiontools/__init__.py", line 411, in
<module>
from versiontools.setuptools_hooks import version as handle_version
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/versiontools/setuptools_hooks.py", line
33, in <module>
from distutils.errors import DistutilsSetupError
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils.errors'
The vast majority of import failures is attributed to missing dependencies.
Often times that manifests as an ImportError or ModuleNotFoundError.
Typically, dependencies should be inserted by dh-python via ${python:Depends}
or ${python3:Depends}. Thus a missing dependency can be caused by incomplete
install_requires in setup.py. Sometimes a missing dependency of a dependency
is the cause, in such cases this bug should be reassigned.
