Debian has switched to Python v3.11 as the system Python, which now prevents pip installing. Also pywb doesn't currently build under Python v3.11, see: https://github.com/webrecorder/pywb/issues/835
Until we have v3.11 support we need to build pywb under Python v3.8, and the easiest way to do that is to use the Python 3.8 Docker image. We are currently using v3.8 in production at swap.stanford.edu.
