This is not as easy as it sounds.

Problem # 1:

Naively updating to "debian:bookworm" leads to:

error: externally-managed-environment

× This environment is externally managed
╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try apt install
    python3-xyz, where xyz is the package you are trying to
    install.

    If you wish to install a non-Debian-packaged Python package,
    create a virtual environment using python3 -m venv path/to/venv.
    Then use path/to/venv/bin/python and path/to/venv/bin/pip. Make
    sure you have python3-full installed.

    If you wish to install a non-Debian packaged Python application,
    it may be easiest to use pipx install xyz, which will manage a
    virtual environment for you. Make sure you have pipx installed.

    See /usr/share/doc/python3.11/README.venv for more information.

note: If you believe this is a mistake, please contact your Python installation or OS distribution provider. You can override this, at the risk of breaking your Python installation or OS, by passing --break-system-packages.
hint: See PEP 668 for the detailed specification.

Basically, mixing system python packages and manually installed packages with pip is no longer the right way to do it.

Using a python base image instead of debian directly is probably the easiest way to fix this.

See:

Problem # 2:

Bookworm comes with python 3.11, and we have held many packages back. So far, twisted and psycopg2 are quite unhappy.
