Adding a 3rd party apt repository

I wanted to specifically install libpython3.7-dev but it wasn't available in my default apt repositories. My apt repositories had libpython3.8-dev which wouldn't work for my specific use-case.

I am on PopOS 20.04. So the corresponding debian codename would be "buster".

I noticed that it was available in https://debian.pkgs.org/10/debian-main-amd64/libpython3.7-dev_3.7.3-2+deb10u1_amd64.deb.html. But it's really hard to keep resolving dependencies.

I needed apt to fix it for me.
