[GRASS-dev] missing dependency on Ubuntu

GRASS GRASS developer
1

Hi,

I just installed GRASS7.8.2 from packages on Ubuntu bionic (18.04) and g.extension fails with
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘distutils.dir_util’

It is confusing, because distutils are part of standard Python, but that particular import failed.
I had to install python3-distutils package to fix that. I suppose python3-distutils should be added as a dependency?

Best,

distutils was moved to the python3-stdlib-extensions package in
3.6.4~rc1-2, this source package also includes tk, gdbm & lib2to3.
