To make your life easier (and keep my homeserver as clean as possible), I made a backport of Python 3.8 for Debian buster (using Debian bullseye) which you can simply install via APT. Of course compiling also takes a bit of time. It is also usually not as easy to remove after you have installed it. Although this works usually pretty good, by compiling from source and installing it, you are effectively bypassing any form of version and dependency control you have with package managers like APT. If you are not willing to use the Docker container, the only option you have left is compiling Python from source yourself. Support will only come with Debian bullseye which will not be released before at least April 2021. However many of us who are running Debian-based operating systems (including Raspberry Pi OS) can’t install Python 3.8 or later from the official repositories. This is not a problem for people running Home Assistant OS, or using the official Docker container. With the release of Home Assistant 0.116, Python 3.7 is now deprecated and support will be removed in 0.118.
