If there were any issue with general Python packages versioning in
Debian, perhaps you should contact the Debian Python Maintainers
team?
You could patch this line to solve the problem:
cheroot/__init__.py:13:
__version__ = pkg_resources.get_distribution('cheroot').version
Ok, distutils is unhappy, but:
1. distutils is obsolete: https://peps.python.org/pep-0632/
2. your example doesn't look like a real-world situation.
You err. See the linked issue on launchpad.net. Ceph does not work due
to your deviation from upstream version numbers.
Best regards

I don't want to diverge from upstream -- however trivial the patch,
unless there's some actual problem to fix.
