Bug Description

Binary package hint: python-distutils-extra

DistutilsExtra introduces a check command, but in Python 2.7 and 3.x, distutils itself has a command with that name, which purpose is to check whether the packaging is correct. I suggest your rename your command “lint”.

This bug was fixed in the package python-distutils-extra - 2.24-1

---------------
python-distutils-extra (2.24-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * auto.py: Fix the string comparison to not install *.notifyrc.in files
    twice. Thanks Éric Araujo for spotting this!
  * DistUtilsExtra/auto.py, __provides(): Do not accidentally clobber
    "py_modules" with "packages", by using a proper copy of the list. Remove
    error filter workaround from test/auto.py.
  * Rename "check" command to "pylint", to avoid clobbering distutils' own
    check command in 2.7/3.x. (LP: #714655)
  * DistUtilsExtra/auto.py, DistUtilsExtra/command/__init__.py: Actually
    expose the pylint command as a setup.py command.
  * Remove pykdeuic4 integration, it's been a continuous source of build
    failures and bugs. Using uic.loadUi() is much more robust.
    Instead, install Qt *.ui files into /usr/share/projectname/ just like the
    GtkBuilder *.ui files.
  * debian/compat, debian/control: Bump to dh 7 compatibility, as we are using
    dh_auto_* magic.
