I think this might also prevent the CI regressions currently seen in src:caffe, src:gpaw and src:link-grammar, if python3.6 additionally gets a Breaks on dh-python (<< the version that added the dependency). In <https://ci.debian.net/packages/c/caffe/testing/amd64/> you can see that the versions that pick up python3.6 from unstable ("trigger: python3.6") are failing their tests. Their logs indicate that python3-distutils was not installed in the failing cases, and the tests fail with: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils.sysconfig' Similarly <https://ci.debian.net/packages/g/gpaw/testing/amd64/> and <https://ci.debian.net/packages/l/link-grammar/testing/amd64/>.
