[PVE-User] Error building pve-qemu-kvm from source

[Musee Ullah]

I think my repos are configured appropriately, as that package is 
found/was installed as expected:

$ apt search libproxmox-backup-qemu0-dev
Sorting... Done
Full Text Search... Done
libproxmox-backup-qemu0-dev/stable,now 1.2.0-1 amd64 [installed,automatic]
   Proxmox Backup Server client library for QEMU development files

$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/proxmox.list
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve bullseye pve-no-subscription
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/devel/ bullseye main

No other repos configured other than a debian mirror for bullseye 
(debian, debian security and updates).

Both Python 2.7 and 3.9 are installed, but qapi-gen.py does specify py3 
and that seems to be fine...

$ env /usr/bin/python3 -V
Python 3.9.2

This host was deployed with PVE 6 using my Ansible role (lae.proxmox), 
and upgraded to PVE 7 via apt. Package/installation wise it hasn't been 
touched outside of that until I attempted to set it up for a build (and 
added the devel repo above during troubleshooting).

Do you have any other ideas what might be causing it?

Either way, seeing as it *should* be building with those steps, I guess 
I'll try building it inside a new host. Thanks for confirming.
