<p>I found the problem.</p>
<p>Recently I changed the python default from 2.7 to 3.7 using [update-alternatives].</p>
<p>I installed python3-docutils (Debian Buster) and now make completes successfully.</p>
<p>Though I wonder if the Geany configuration files need a little tweaking to find the problem before <code>make</code> is run. I don't know a better method of checking (I'm not at all familiar with python packages).</p>
