It includes an extensive standard library, and has a vast ecosystem of third-party libraries. The python3.10 package provides the "python3.10" executable: the reference interpreter for the Python language, version 3. The majority of its standard library is provided in the python3.10-libs package, which should be installed automatically along with python3.10. The remaining parts of the Python standard library are broken out into the python3.10-tkinter and python3.10-test packages, which may need to be installed separately. Documentation for Python is provided in the python3.10-docs package. Packages containing additional libraries for Python are generally named with the "python3.10-" prefix. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Python 3.10.16 security release.
