- Why I did it
Prior to SONiC using Debian Buster, we needed to build Python 3.5 or newer from source for installation in the SNMP container, becuase it wasn't available from the Debian repository for Jessie or Stretch. Now that all containers are based on Buster, we simply install Python 3.7 from the Debian repository in the host as well as all containers. We are no longer building Python 3 from source, so the Makefile is unused and we no longer need to install build dependencies in the slave containers.

Successfully build all slave containers and a SONiC image
