Hi,
#982671 / #982672 is incorrectly reported against the python-unbound
package. It should instead be against the unbound binary package because
this functionality is in the unbound daemon. The error message cited in
the original report is an error message generated by the unbound daemon:
[123376:0] error: module init for module python failed
Based on the original report this failure occurred after the bug
reporter upgraded to src:unbound1.9's unbound package in oldstable.
The embedded Python scripting support is in the unbound daemon and
enabled by the the '--with-pythonmodule' parameter to the unbound
configure script. It results in this dependency in the built unbound
package:
$ dpkg-deb -I unbound_1.9.0-2+deb10u2~deb9u1_amd64.deb | grep '^ Depends:'
Depends: adduser, dns-root-data, lsb-base (>= 3.0-6), openssl,
unbound-anchor, init-system-helpers (>= 1.18~), libc6 (>= 2.17),
libevent-2.0-5 (>= 2.0.10-stable), libfstrm0 (>= 0.2.0), libprotobuf-c1

(>= 1.0.1), libpython3.5 (>= 3.5.0~b1), libssl1.1 (>= 1.1.0),
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
libsystemd0
The python{3,}-unbound packages implement the Python extension module
bindings for the C libunbound library. The Python extension module is
enabled by the '--with-pyunbound' parameter to the unbound configure
script.
