Hello Mingli,

Did you happen to run the create_manifest task after modifying the manifest to make sure that runtime dependencies are still valid?

Thanks

Alejandro

Add pydoc and urllib to core to fix below error:
 # python3
 >>> help()
 Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
 File "/usr/lib64/python3.8/sitebuiltins.py", line 102, in __call_
 import pydoc
 ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pydoc'
 File "/usr/lib64/python3.8/pydoc.py", line 72, in <module>
 import urllib.parse
 ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'urllib'
