I'm quite sure the culprit lies hidden somewhere in an
python3-setuptools upstream release between probably 65.3.0 (seems to
have worked for the past 5 weeks unless Lucas' rebuilds happen more
seldom, in which case 59.6.0 would be the last known working version)
and 65.5.0 (clearly broken, installs qutebrowser and only that file
into /usr/bin/ _and_ /usr/local/bin/).
Since the upstream changelog is rather terse about potential huge
changes like e.g. …
* #3576: Updated version of ``validate_pyproject``.
* #3617: Merge with pypa/distutils@6852b20 including fix for
pypa/distutils#181.
… I have no idea which of the changes actually could have triggered
this issue.
So I'm going with the above mentioned hardball fix.
Regards, Axel
