Package *python-dev* not available in Debian suite *sid*/*unstable*

[paulmenzel]

Trying to install the dependencies for, for example,

lkp-tests/programs/perf/pkg/depends

Line 36 in 5bc63dc

python-dev

an error is show, that the package cannot be installed. I guess it should be python3-dev?

Thanks, there's a step like map_packages during lkp install, which would convert python-dev name to python3-dev when detecting the debian os is debian 11 or higher. If you want to directly install the packages in depends file, could you give a try with

tools/test-packages.sh programs/perf/pkg/depends

Thank you for the prompt response. The mapping does not work then:

Sorry, this is a bug that doesn't do the map of python to python3 when it is debian trixie_sid. I just add a fix, can you try the latest code?
