It seems that python3-pip now requires `python3-distutils` (instead of being
just a recommendation via `python3-setuptools` own recommendation):
```
$ docker run -it --rm ubuntu:18.04 bash
# apt-get update && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends python3
python3-pip python3-distutils
# pip3 -h
Usage:
pip <command> [options]
...
```
The same scenario worked with ubuntu:16.04.
