Description
I have tried to install howdy in python 3.9 multiple times yielding unfortunate results.
/usr/local/lib/ after howdy installation:

I've searched for similar issues already, and my issue has not been reported yet.
Linux distribution (if applicable): Ubuntu
Howdy version (`sudo howdy version`): 2.6.1

Research direction
Start by reproducing the Howdy 2.6.1 installation on Ubuntu with Python 3.9 and inspect the reported /usr/local/lib state and linked image. Compare the installation result with a supported Python setup to identify the failure. Done means Howdy installs successfully and `sudo howdy version` works under Python 3.9.
