https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/walinuxagent/+bug/2104189

walinuxagent was updated to expect python3-legacycrypt when the Python
version is 3.13 or greater
(https://github.com/Azure/WALinuxAgent/pull/3070). python3-legacycrypt
is in universe so walinuxagent cannot be updated to depend on it without
an MIR.

The upstream fix was still taken (https://code.launchpad.net/~aleksa-
svitlica/ubuntu/+source/walinuxagent/+git/walinuxagent/+merge/483698)
because it includes a stub implementation which means the package builds
and the agent runs without python3-legacycrypt. The agent will raise an
error if any functionality relying on python3-legacycrypt is used (like
changing your password).

There has been discussion in an upstream PR about the possibility of
updating walinuxagent to not rely on python3-legacycrypt:
https://github.com/Azure/WALinuxAgent/pull/3141
