In the previous email I failed to mention that electrum has an additional new 
dependency that used to be included in electrum itself, but was recently spun 
out as a seperate Python project named python-electrum-aionostr.  I will 
upload it to trixie-backports shortly, after which electrum will be ready to 
backport.
