@s4ncho
No, there is a mistake with the makedependency, it reads "python-distutils-extra" > (This is Python3 version).
The one it needs is "python2-distutils-extra", Python3 and Python2 do not share modules.

Fix makedependency, it needs "python2-distutils-extra". hope it helps.

my aur manager finds only the one from community:\
