[Bug 1936697] [NEW] Unlisted dependency

[Computerworm01001]

Public bug reported:

I am using pbuilder 0.231build1 on Ubuntu 21.04 Hirsute. I tried to run
"pbuilder-dist hirsute create" and received this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/pbuilder-dist", line 32, in <module>
    import distutils.spawn
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils.spawn'

I tried it three more times and the same thing kept happening, so then I
took a closer look at the error message, and decided to "apt search" for
a Python distutils package in the repos. I found python3-distutils, and
installed it, then I tried running pbuilder-dist again and it succeeded.

Therefore, the fix for this bug is to add python3-distutils as a
dependency of pbuilder.

Thank you and have a good day!
