Bug Description
Description: Ubuntu Focal Fossa (development branch)
Release: 20.04
fish:
Installed: 3.1.0-1
Candidate: 3.1.0-1
Running fish_config within fish should launch a web page hosted locally that allows configuring the theme / prompt etc.
Instead of showing the web page, the command errors out with the following output:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/
from distutils.spawn import find_executable
Installing python3-distutils separately resolves the error above.
