Debian 12: errors when using Python3 venv?

[Nicholas Papadonis]

Hi,

I just cleanly installed Debian 11 and am trying to create a virtual
environment for Python.

I get the following error, does anyone know how to resolve this?  Am I
missing some packages that need to be installed?

1843 [deb12:~]$ python3 -m venv pt
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 189, in _run_module_as_main
  File "", line 148, in _get_module_details
  File "", line 112, in _get_module_details
  File "/usr/lib/python3.11/venv/__init__.py", line 7, in 
import logging
  File "/usr/lib/python3.11/logging/__init__.py", line 43, in 
import threading
  File "/home/vboxuser/threading.py", line 3, in 
sem = threading.Semaphore()
  ^^^
AttributeError: partially initialized module 'threading' has no attribute
'Semaphore' (most likely due to a circular import)

Re: Settings: focus when mouse over window?

I have the default Gnome WM installed.  Does it provide a similar option?

Multi Desktop Windows?

Searched the settings for this functionality.  Does anyone know how to
enable it?

I.e. pressing Ctrl-Arrow will switch to a new virtual desktop.

I installed Debian 11.  Does anyone know how to get this functionality?  I
looked through settings however didn't see an option.
