mach bootstrap produces

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils.spawn'

This is with the system's default Python 2.7.17, with a machine.

We should fix this, as this is what new contributors see first when attempting to build Firefox.

On a freshly upgraded Ubuntu 19.10 install, I can't reproduce this. ./mach bootstrap works fine.

Can you provide some more information about the failure you're seeing, how you're invoking mach, the full stack trace, etc.?
