Hi. I found 316 affected packages, which I reported here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?users=debian-qa@lists.debian.org;tag=python-distutils I'm using a tag so that the bug numbers are easy to get, just in case you people want to reconsider if adding 316 RC bugs in a day (not reported before with severity:important) is really a good idea. Thanks.
