This seems to imply that the python interpreter doesn understand the f-string. Presumably it is running under python2? What python2 pacakges do you have installed? dpkg -l | grep python2 should producs a list.

System was installed a year > ago on a disk that hadn't seen Linux before. Does it belong to any installed package? 'dpkg -S /usr/bin/python' should tell you. Even with a /usr/bin/python -> python2 symlink I am unable to get the postinst to fail as it does in your case. Somehow you appear to have a python2 interpreter which is trying to compile python3 code. I can't see how that could happen. Can you check your python3 versions? I get: $ python3 -V Python 3.9.1rc1 Any extraneous symlinks in /usr/local/bin or elsewhere in the $PATH? Thanks.

Good! > So, somewhere in the upgrade from ascii to chimaera, python3-reportbug was > installed while python2 was still used. Caused by skipping Beowulf? Ah, yes. That is definitely *not* supported. You are not supposed to miss out a release[1] for exactly this sort of reason. Python versions and packaging are quite fragile and you can end up with mismatches. For example, python-minimal doesn't exist in chimaera at all. I can't reproduce your behaviour on a correctly installed ceres or chimaera system, so I am going to tag it invalid an close. Please feel free to reopen if you really think there is a reportbug issue.
