backintime-qt 1.2.1-3 fails because of an incompatibility to python 3.10.
python 3.10 is part of Ubuntu 22.04.

Therefore my assumption: the version of backintime-qt contained in
Ubuntu 22.04 was never tested. It's simply not starting at all.

So I dont understand the statement, that in order to upgrade backintime
to 1.3.2 one have to perform a more thorough review (compared to the one
undertaken for the version launched with 22.04)?.

If I read the release comments in backintime's 1.2.1-3 (from 2019)
successors 1.3.0, 1.3.1 (both july 2021) and 1.3.2 (march 2022) I can
only bug fixes, no new functionality.

If you need a more thorough test: take my test: the version above is
working fine on 22.04, much much better than the one distributed with
22.04.

So please update the installation media and/or roll out a fix for
backintime using the standard apt update/upgrade procedure. The current
situation can't be worse.
