+# Most of the python3.10 standard libraries are split into
+# two major packages:
+# - libpython3.10-minimal (this one)
+# - libpython3.10-stdlib
+# While the libpython3.10-stdlib package has been chiselled logically
+# into granular slices, the same hasn't been done for this package.
+# The reason is simple, the libraries in this package are tightly
+# dependent upon each other.
