> Is Python 3.14 transition finished or not?
As far as the python3 version 3.14.6-1 suite of Debian is concerned,
the answer is yes, all dust and done.
If you still have problems updating, you have packages installed still
depending on python3 version 3.13.x-y. First of all you should identify
them, so an output of
$ sudo apt-get install python3
might be helpful. If virtualbox is holding back the transit, you either
wait for an update of virtualbox or follow the instructions from above.
In any case: It's not python's fault, when developers react late (esp.
virtualbox Debian developers) when they are informed months before the transit
takes place (esp. when the corrections are so easy, they hardly pose a one week's
challenge to undergraduate students of computer science).
 

THANK YOU
I did

sudo apt-get install python3

and it automatically updated LibreOffice files.
I still have 4 packages on hold. They are as follows:

 libavcodec61  libavutil59  libswresample5  policycoreutils-dbus

What shall I do?

Well, I don't use Virtualbox (at least I don't know Iuse it :-) )
May the happiness be with you!

Wenn apt -s remove libavcodec61 keine Probleme ausspuckt, so kannst du es problemlos entfernen. War bei mir problemlos und hat keine Anwendungen ins Nirwana befördert.

libavutil59 konnte ich problemlos installieren. Gibt es da eventuell noch Abhängigkeiten, die das bei dir verhindern?

If apt -s remove libavcodec61 doesn't throw any errors, then you can remove it without any issues. It worked fine for me and didn't break any applications.

I was able to install libavutil59 without any problems. Are there perhaps still some dependencies preventing you from doing so?

~$ apt policy  libavutil59
libavutil59:
  Installiert:           7:7.1.5-0+deb13u1
  Installationskandidat: 7:7.1.5-0+deb13u1
  Versionstabelle:
 *** 7:7.1.5-0+deb13u1 500
        500 https://deb.debian.org/debian unstable/main amd64 Packages
        500 http://debian.superhosting.cz/debian sid/main amd64 Packages
        500 http://debian.dynamica.it/debian sid/main amd64 Packages
        500 http://ftp.debian.sk/debian sid/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Mit apt -s install libavutil59 einmal die Probleme aufspüren.

Gleiches sollte bei libswresample5 der Fall sein.

Try running apt -s install libavutil59 to troubleshoot the issues.
The same should apply to libswresample5.


~$ apt policy libswresample5
libswresample5:
  Installiert:           7:7.1.5-0+deb13u1
  Installationskandidat: 7:7.1.5-0+deb13u1
  Versionstabelle:
 *** 7:7.1.5-0+deb13u1 500
        500 https://deb.debian.org/debian unstable/main amd64 Packages
        500 http://debian.superhosting.cz/debian sid/main amd64 Packages
        500 http://debian.dynamica.it/debian sid/main amd64 Packages
        500 http://ftp.debian.sk/debian sid/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

policycoreutils-dbus Warten oder entfernen, falls du darauf verzichten willst oder kannst.
Wait, or remove it if you want to or are able to.

Thank you!
I did as you told, all worked well.
I will wait for a while for  policycoreutils-dbus to be fixed.
May the happiness be with you!

Python: Bei mir wartet das Upgrade von 'policycoreutils-dbus' immer noch auf seine Abhängigkeit 'policycoreutils-python-utils'.
