Package python-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
  python-dev-is-python3

E: Package 'python-dev' has no installation candidate

I have tried updating and restarting. The machine has a fresh install of octoprint. The only plugin that has been added is the autologin plugin.

What should I do to fix this issue?

Hi @spoolpin ,

install-octopi.sh is an older install script. Have you tried using KIAUH? I would flash the Pi with RPi OS Lite (64-bit) and install Klipper with KIAUH. Mainsail and Fluidd are the interfaces of choice for Klipper, but you can use OctoPrint if you want, but I would install that after Klipper.
