This package failed build from source when test-built against a version of dh-python without a python3-setuptools dependency. distutils is no longer part of the Python standard library, since 3.12. But a minimal version of it becomes available when the python3-setuptools package is installed. Please add a Build-Depends on python3-setuptools to your package, or migrate the package's build system away from setuptools/distutils. If you run into any difficulties, please raise them on debian-python@lists.debian.org. This bug has been filed at "important" severity, as the change hasn't been made in dh-python yet, but this may be raised to RC before the trixie release. Thanks, Stefano
Please consider removing the package. It was not released with trixie and is unmaintained upstream.
Actually, there is still use for this, so I am fixing this via NMU. The debdiff is attached.
We believe that the bug you reported is fixed in the latest version of python-nss, which is due to be installed in the Debian FTP archive. A summary of the changes between this version and the previous one is attached. Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed. If you have further comments please address them to 1080757@bugs.debian.org, and the maintainer will reopen the bug report if appropriate.
