When I tried to report a bug from abrt the procedure failed with the python3 error :
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘urllib3.packages.six.moves’
from command
/usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/reporter-bugzilla -h <id> -p Fedora
even if the package python-urllib3 and python3-six are installed on system.
It was working some time ago.
What can I do to understand the origin of the problem and correct it?
Thank you
The version installed on my kde plasma does not seem to use six.
I have this version:
$ dnf install /usr/bin/reporter-bugzilla
Updating and loading repositories:
Repositories loaded.
Package "libreport-plugin-bugzilla-2.17.15-5.fc42.aarch64" is already installed.
Nothing to do.
Please provide a python stack trace of the error.
Also why are you now running via an explicit python3?
I running nothing explicitly, I take information from abrt gui.
I can extract from report :

It’s unusual that it’s taking the package from /usr/local/lib rather than /usr/lib.
Do you have a version of urllib3 that you installed via pip rather than as a Fedora package?
See for example: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54234344/the-reason-cause-different-location-of-python-packages
I must have tried installing a Python program not long ago, but I can’t remember which one. Even though I tried to do it in a virtual environment, I’m not familiar with it, and I must have done something wrong.
I think the best thing to do would be to clean up what was installed in /usr/local regarding Python.
What would be a good way to do this?
As spotted by @pg-tips
You will have to get rid of packages you installed into /usr/local if you want Fedora shipped tools to work.
The best way to handle installing packages from PyPI is in a venv.
Just removing /usr/local/lib/python3.13 should do it.
To be safe, you could move it somewhere in your homedir in case you want to revert. (But ideally you won’t, I think all of us on this thread agree that packages should always be installed into a venv, a Conda env etc).
mkdir ~/pythonbak
sudo mv /usr/local/lib/python3.13 ~/pythonbak
Subsequently, you might want to find out what is setting your PYTHONPATH environment variable and thereby injecting this /usr/local/... path into Python’s sys.path. However that isn’t urgent, Python will just ignore the now non-existent directory.
Thank you @pg-tips and @barryascott .
Deleting the files fixes the problem.
