Dear Maintainer,
The latest python3-apt releases 2.9.8 and 2.9.7 produce the following
error with Ansible:
Error message:
python3-apt must be installed and visible from /usr/bin/python3.
As workaround, downgrading the package to the latest version working (2.9.6)
"solves" the issue:
apt install -y python3-setuptools libapt-pkg-dev python3-pip git
pip3 git+https://salsa.debian.org/apt-team/python-apt.git@2.9.6 \
--break-system-packages
Tested with Ansible version:
ii ansible 9.5.1+dfsg-1 all

ansible --version
