[Python-apps-team] Bug#922017: pipenv: Unable to use with Python 3.6

There is similar issue on github.  I think that we have to provide
python3-distutils for 3.6?  I've just downgraded it with
python3-distutils_3.6.6-1_all.deb and pipenv worked.

$ sudo dpkg -i /tmp/downloads/python3-distutils_3.6.6-1_all.deb
dpkg: warning: downgrading python3-distutils from 3.7.2-3 to 3.6.6-1

So, I guess when Debian dropped 3.6 support, python3-distutils also removed 3.6?
