What's the issue?
The Debian installation instructions for versions 10 and 11 (https://github.com/HavocFramework/Havoc/blob/main/WIKI.MD#debian-1011) suggest adding Bookworm (Debian 12) as an APT source to install Python 3.10.
This is likely to break a Debian installation pretty badly, since it will pull some packages designed for Debian 12 into Debian 10. See the Debian Wiki advice about avoiding "FrankenDebian". Furthermore some packages like python3-dev will point to the newer version of Python 3, causing conflicts with the older version which some system scripts rely on.
I recommend saying that Debian 10/11 are unsupported, and saying that if a user really wants to use it, they will have to compile Python 3.10 from source as per: https://computingforgeeks.com/how-to-install-python-on-debian-linux/
Ubuntu 20.04 works with the provided instructions (Dead Snakes PPA), for Ubuntu 22.04 this is unnecessary as Python 3.10 is already the default installed version.
