python3-debug Subpackage of python3.11

python3-debug provides a version of the Python runtime with numerous debugging features enabled, aimed at advanced Python users such as developers of Python extension modules. This version uses more memory and will be slower than the regular Python build, but is useful for tracking down reference-counting issues and other bugs. The debug build shares installation directories with the standard Python runtime. Python modules -- source (.py), bytecode (.pyc), and C-API extensions (.cpython*.so) -- are compatible between this and the standard version of Python. The debug runtime additionally supports debug builds of C-API extensions (with the "d" ABI flag) for debugging issues in those extensions.
