build from source failure

On a test system combo FE/BE, I've been playing with Master just to see
what's developing. No issues until today. I had an error on 'sudo make
install'. Assuming I had issues with my setup, I deleted the
~/build/mythtv directory and cloned mythtv repository again. But I got the
same error. Console output below:
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/jim/build/mythtv/mythtv/bindings/python'
python3 setup.py install --skip-build --root="/"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 4, in <module>
import setuptools
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'setuptools'
make[1]: *** [Makefile:27: install] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/jim/build/mythtv/mythtv/bindings/python'
make: *** [Makefile:75: bindings/python_install] Error 2

>>> ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'setuptools'

That dependency was introduced yesterday.

You can apt install python3-setuptools
