[Bug 1999148] Re: aptdaemon: FTBFS with setuptools >= 65

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

Hmm.. While aptdaemon 1.1.1+bzr982-0ubuntu40 builds, autopkgtest fails.
When building, version 1.3.7-9 of python3-nose is used, but autopkgtest
is run with python3-nose 1.3.7-8.

https://bugs.debian.org/1024235 was fixed (in a hackish manner) in nose
1.3.7-9.

I'm out on slippery ice here, but wanted to share that observation.

Title:
  aptdaemon: FTBFS with setuptools >= 65

Status in aptdaemon package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in setuptools package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  aptdaemon FTBFS with python3-setuptools 65.5.0-1.

  I've copied what I hope is the relevant part of the log below.

  Spoiler alert: there may also be issues with python3-nose and Python
  3.11 [1], but it is recommended that packages migrate away from using
  nose anyway [2].
