Dear Maintainer,
As reported in Ubuntu, s3cmd on Debian also does not run by default (it
spits an error about distutils.spawn). This is because (I think) python2
had distutils as part of the core, while python3 does not.
In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to achieve the following:
* d/control: add run-time dependency on python3-distutils.
- Upstream has required it in s3cmd since 2007.
- LP: #1763398
Thanks for considering the patch.
