My Debian 12 VM has python 3.11.  You must have a very old version of 
Debian. On some VMs (not Debian, I think) I have had other Python 
versions alongside of the system's, e.g., 3.11 and 3.12. I didn't 
compile them myself. You will have to search for a repository with the 
right package.  But upgrade your system first!
