Source: mecab Version: 0.996-14 Tags: patch User: helm...@debian.org Usertags: rebootstrap
mecab participates in dependency loops relevant to architecture bootstrap. Rather than looking into such a difficult problem, I looked into easily droppable dependencies. It turns out that the python extension uses distutils rather than setuptools. Therefore python3-setuptools can be dropped from Build-Depends. Please consider applying the attached patch. Helmut
