Hi Bob,
This assumes that all Linux systems are Ubuntu based, which is not
true. The apt tool is specific to Debian/Ubuntu, Fedora/Redhat and
Suse all use something else.
In general, I don't think we should validate the Python environment to
this extent, since we cannot fix the problem for the user anyway, only
flag it, and since python explodes rather loudly in this case, I think
we should be able to leave it up to developers that are savvy enough
to build EDK2 to also find the python distutils package for their
platform.
Note that that doesn't mean we shouldn't document this, and not just
for Ubuntu. But I think putting it in the script is overkill.
