Hey,  
I remember doing this tutorial a few days ago and it worked. However, now, I worked on the stargazer image a little (basically following [the systemd tutorial](https://hub.mender.io/t/how-to-create-your-first-recipe-and-enable-auto-start-using-systemd/1195/8). When I add `python3` again, start qemu and try to start python it fails:

```
root@qemux86-64:~# python3
[56.914963] traps: python3[315] trap invalid opcode ip:7f7f73325686 sp:7ffe8025d930 error:0 in libpython3.7m.so.1.0[7f7f731e2000+1bc000]
Illegal instruction

```

Do you have a hint on how to debug this?
