The Spyder package is missing from jigdo amd64 weekly 16 GB stick ISO.
All its dependencies are there like python3-spyder, but since spyder
itself is missing, spyder can not be used.
https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/weekly-builds/amd64/jigdo-16G/
https://packages.debian.org/fr/sid/spyder
I quote from this page : "This package provides the application for Python 3."

The 16GB image isn't big enough to hold every package in Debian, I'm
afraid. A full set of all packages for amd64 bullseye is currently
around 70GB...

Hi Steve!
The 16GB image is actually less than 15GB.
The Spyder package is 200kb.
There is ample room.
Someone who does not use Spyder put python3-spyder in this ISO thinking it was the real Spyder software, except that it was just one if its dependencies.
You could either remove the dependencies or add the small Spyder package, but leaving things as they are makes no sense.
I am now using the BluRay image which contains Spyder and its dependencies, so I am fine.
But obviously there is a problem with the current algo being used if
the dependencies of a software end up in an ISO but not the software
actually depending on them.
I remember being surprised by the size of the ISO being significantly
less than 16 GB. I believe it was 14.8 GB. I just downloaded it again
to verify and voila : 14,8 Gio (15 909 054 464) Well...also known as
: 15,9 GB

No, there is *not* obviously a problem there. There would be a problem
the *other* way round, as then you'd have the top-level software
package but not be able to install it. As I said, we sort packages in dependency order and then go through the list as far as we can before
the media is full.
