I had the same problem with OpenSuse Tumbleweed where a big update even blocked python-based system programs such as firewalld (it's not nothing), others and of course weewx. I was able to check all the programs for errors with the command:
# *systemctl list-units --state=failed* I made a link from python3.11 to python3 which is the reference for many programs: #* ln /usr/bin/python3.11 /usr/bin/python3* All programs worked again while avoiding changes in all files.
