Debian Users - Be aware the maintainer of the KeePassXC package for Debian has unilaterally decided to remove ALL features from it. You will need to switch to `keepassxc-full` to maintain capabilities once this lands outside of testing/sid.
The python3 package should contain the entire python standard library
You are free to use a distro which does not split packages, favorite distro, Arch Linux (btw).
Or, you can install the recommended dependencies of python3. Testing in a container, the python3 package pulls:
root@a72bd55a3c1a:/# apt install python3

The following additional packages will be installed:

I find it odd, because debian does this by default, actually. They account for usecases like yours, and instead you have to edit a config file or use a command line flag to get it to not install recommended dependencies.

I find it odd, because venv is a “Suggested package”, actually. It isn’t in the list of new packages that will be installed with python3 by default.
I think the next major release of apt is supposed to be easier to read. Unless Debian neuter it.
I do this stuff for work, unfortunately I don’t have the flexibility to choose here.
