Argg, sorry for the stupid report, wrong use of reportbug. Since the upload of python3.6 version 3.6.5~rc1-2, it doesn't depend on python3-distutils anymore. Your autopkgtest¹ fails since than with the following error:

I don't know if this is an issue of the test (adding the dependency
there can fix the issue) or if systemfixtures's dependencies need updating.
There are rumors that one shouldn't use distutils as a runtime
dependency and one should use sysconfig instead.
