Bug Description

I tried to execute thefuck on a fresh Ubuntu 20.04 LTS installation but this error occurs:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/thefuck", line 9, in <module>
    from distutils.spawn import find_executable
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils.spawn'

That's a clear missing dependency on package python3-distutils. After I install that the command works again.

I completely forgot about this bug report. :)

Unfortunately, with Ubuntu 24.04 LTS thefuck stopped working again, but this time because of Python 3.12. There are folks trying to work on this, though.
