The Debugger uses Python to connect to the host platform's native debuggers. This requires
a [supported](#minimum-requirements) version of Python and some additional packages. These packages
are included in the distribution, but you may still install them from PyPI if you prefer:
* psutil
* protobuf==3.20.3
* Pybag>=2.2.12 (for WinDbg support)
* protobuf>=3.20.3
* Pybag>=2.2.16 (for WinDbg support)
Different native debuggers have varying requirements, so you do not necessarily have to install all
of the above packages. Each connector will inform you of its specific requirements and where they
must be installed. In some cases, you may need to install packages on the target system.
