Bug Description
During a regular update of updatable packages I got this message for the software-properties package in the shell:
----8<----
python3-
Failed to byte-compile /usr/lib/
def __init__(self, sourceslist=None, /, files=None):
SyntaxError: invalid syntax (expected ')')
---->8----
After the installation process is finished the package is marked as installed, not as corrupted in aptitude.
Regards
Andreas
