That should work out of the box. Using here virt-manager for a long while
now. You should not install python packages from pip if they are available
from apt as well. You might run into unexpected dependency issues which
can silently break your apps. (I had this already)

If that doesn't work you already managed to break your python
installation, here is what I get:

andi@zeus:~$ cat /etc/devuan_version
chimaera
andi@zeus:~$ python3
Python 3.9.2 (default, Feb 28 2021, 17:03:44)
[GCC 10.2.1 20210110] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import gi
>>> gi.__file__
'/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py'
>>> quit()

andi@zeus:~$ dpkg -S /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py
python3-gi: /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py
andi@zeus:~$ apt-cache policy python3-gi
python3-gi:
  Installiert:           3.38.0-2
  Installationskandidat: 3.38.0-2
  Versionstabelle:
 *** 3.38.0-2 500
        500 http://deb.devuan.org/merged chimaera/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

You most likely managed to break your PYTHONPATH. Maybe some file got
corrupt? You could try to re-install all python packages from apt.


cheers,
Andreas
