Source: libprelude
Version: 5.2.0-5
Tags: bookworm ftbfs
Severity: serious
When I build this package from source, the build fails. Please see log output
at the end.
My build environment is a container image based on Debian testing bookworm,
which already includes python3.11
After some research I guess it may be related to the upgrade to pyhton3.11 and
the new behavior which enforces pip install packages only in venv.
There is also a separation of user und system packages which may be the problem
in an isolated buildroot.
There maybe a new PEP668 involved: https://peps.python.org/pep-0668/
https://peps.python.org/pep-0668/#keep-the-marker-file-in-container-images
https://discuss.python.org/t/python3-m-pip-install-user-broken-in-debian-testing/24268
And a long discussion about distros:
