Dear mercurial maintainer,
The package mercurial build failed on riscv64.The crucial buildd log below:
```
debian/rules override_dh_auto_build
make[1]: Entering directory '/build/reproducible-path/mercurial-6.9.3'
/usr/bin/make all PYTHON=python3.13
make[2]: Entering directory '/build/reproducible-path/mercurial-6.9.3'
python3.13 setup.py build
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/build/reproducible-path/mercurial-6.9.3/setup.py", line 114,
in <module>
from distutils.core import setup
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils'
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/build/reproducible-path/mercurial-6.9.3/setup.py", line 116,
in <module>
from setuptools import setup
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'setuptools'
```
The full buildd log is here:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=mercurial&arch=riscv64&ver=6.9.3-1&stamp=1741327548&raw=0
My solution to this issue:
This issue is caused by setuptools not being automatically installed on
the RISC-V architecture and needs to be explicitly installed in
debian/control. I have tested this solution,and it works well.The
debpatch is in the attachment.
