Dear Maintainer,
After installing playonlinux it fails to start with a python error:
$ playonlinux
Looking for python3... 3.13.1 - selected

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pipes'
It is missing a dependency on python3-standard-pipes, which seems to be
removed from the standard python library (see PEP-594).
Installing python3-standard-pipes allows me to start the gui properly.
Thanks
