The fix for this question is "Depends: python3:any" I believe. Different take on a related issue: When cross-compiling, I cannot install clang-11 and llvm-11-dev for the build-architecture when installing the host-architecture postgresql-server-dev-13. I think the fix is annotating (some subset of) the llvm packges with "Multi-Arch: allowed". Please consider applying these fixes so clang can be used for cross-compilation. Thanks, Christoph
