[solved] inkscape extension-manager broken on excalibur?

I try to open a dxf file in inkscape but get errors.
running devuan excalibur
Same when trying to open the extension manager itself:

Trying to self-update the package... Failed to update!

Please delete the package manually! (see location below)

Please report this error

Looks like you might be missing a python package for tinycss2, is it not available in excalibur? Don't have running instance to check myself.

python3-tinycss
python3-tinycss2

Re: [solved] inkscape extension-manager broken on excalibur?

Thank you very much. Sorry I didn't get that myself (bad time at the moment).

I am pretty sure it worked before the last update of my system, which changed inkscape from 1.2 to 1.4 (as far as I see it. or it was the upgrade from daedalus to excalibur).

BTW shouldn't that be a dependency (as the extension manager seems to be an essential part of inkscape)?
