Yes, that's right.  A more perfect solution is to backport and rebuild
the csound source package from Debian Testing.

When I was building OLPC OS from Ubuntu 20.04, this wasn't a problem
because Ubuntu had already taken the csound source package from Debian
Testing.  All I had to do was declare the dependency on
python3-csound, and it all worked fine for Music Blocks 13.

Yes.  However, the dependency is unlikely to be explicit, likely to be
accidental.  It isn't in the debian/control.in for the metacity source
package.

A more perfect solution is to backport and rebuild the metacity source
package from Debian Testing.

because Ubuntu had already taken the metacity 3.36 source package from
Debian Testing.
