Public bug reported:

System:   Samsung Galaxy S6 running Android 7.0, with fresh install of
Termux 0.118.3

When I install python using pkg install python I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/py3compile", line 323, in <module>
    main()
    ~~~~^^
  File "/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/py3compile", line 284, in main
    pkg_files = tuple(dpf.from_package(options.package))
  File "/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/python3.13/debpython/files.py", 
line 85, in from_package
    raise Exception("cannot get content of %s" % package_name)
Exception: cannot get content of python

Same messages also appear for python-pip.

Note:  I don't actually know if this creates a problem with the
installation!  I assume that it must, as files.py is not returning the
expected results.

I have tested several changes to files.py and determined that the cause
of the error seems to be the line:  env["LD_PRELOAD"] = "".   If I
remove that, the install works fine.

I have done the same installation on a Lenovo tablet running Android 11
and it works fine, so the LD_PRELOAD is not always a problem.   I do not
know enough to have any theory about why it causes a problem on the
Android 7 device.   I have done factory resets and several reinstalls of
Termux and always get the same problem from files.py.
