That's by design: you installed python3-core which is the core runtime and a little more.  The runpy error - if fixed - would simply change to "cannot find http".

I'll send a fix to ensure that runpy is always present as it's needed for -m to work, but if you want the full python3 environment then install python3, not python3-core.

runpy is in core as of eba857d3e52f83d426e95fa8373799da058f9484.
