Upgrade the python system from 3.5 to 3.6 might breaks some python system
libraries, no ?

You didn&#39;t say what dependency problem you&#39;re seeing. Is it python3=
.6<br>
depending on python3-distutils?<br>
<br>
If it is, you might try building the 3.6.5-3 source package from sid<br>
rather than the 3.6.5~rc1-1 package from buster, as that dependency has<br>
been removed there.<br>
<br>
That should give you a working Python 3.6, but without distutils which<br>
has recently been moved to the python3-stdlib-extensions package. If you<br=

need distutils you might try backporting that too.<span class=3D"HOEnZb"><f=
