Hi,
I just cleanly installed Debian 11 and am trying to create a virtual
environment for Python.
I get the following error, does anyone know how to resolve this? Am I
missing some packages that need to be installed?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: partially initialized module 'threading' has no attribute
'Semaphore' (most likely due to a circular import)
Your /home/vboxuser/threading.py is hiding the threading module from the
python standard library.
Python is loading the first file with .py extension as module when it is
requested by an import in the called script. Even an empty file is
loaded as module.
The feature or bad thing is that the current directory is in the python
path.
$ touch threading.py
$ python -m venv my_venv
