Hi,

During a rebuild of all packages in sid, your package failed to build
on amd64.


Relevant part (hopefully):

> dh clean --with python3 --buildsystem=pybuild
>    dh_auto_clean -O--buildsystem=pybuild

> /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/_distutils_hack/__init__.py:18: UserWarning: Distutils was imported before Setuptools, but importing Setuptools also replaces the `distutils` module in `sys.modules`. This may lead to undesirable behaviors or errors. To avoid these issues, avoid using distutils directly, ensure that setuptools is installed in the traditional way (e.g. not an editable install), and/or make sure that setuptools is always imported before distutils.
