I have an annoying error on, among others, command run sudo apt autoremove: it outputs following error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'six'. I checked for this package pip list | grep six, and it is there. Package 'requests_unixsocket', however, is not there even after I install it. Any help is appreciated.

I tried installing both six and requests_unixsocket again in an environment, but it does not solve the issue.
To restore default six package run
sudo apt reinstall -y python3-six
