Debian 11 raise an error

When initiating your virtual enviroment use --system-site-packages. This makes the system packages available inside the Virtual enviroment. Thats how i fixed this error. see also https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12079607/make-virtualenv-inherit-specific-packages-from-your-global-site-packages

Building Debian packages is only possible on a Debain compatible distribution?

In general, of course, this is not such a big problem, but perhaps not using apt module could allow more distributions to be supported?

And why is the apt module needed in principle, so I understand that dpkg-deb is enough to create the Debain package?

I'm not a developer of wheel2deb or associated with its maintainers, just someone who had the same problem with virtual environments last week or so ;)

With a quick look over the code base, i think the apt module is used to search for valid package names. The deb generation itself only needs dpkg-deb.
