Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
dh_python3 generates postint script that contains:
Automatically added by dh_python3
if command -v py3compile >/dev/null 2>&1; then
py3compile -p llvm-21-tools:amd64 /usr/lib/llvm-21/build/utils/lit
fi
Lack of || true or similar(py3compile not returning 1 on fail?) causes
llvm-21-tools to fail at install:
