Trying to use a gcloud asdf installation it fails with the error:

gcloud version
ERROR: gcloud failed to load: No module named '_sqlite3'

After installing various components (readline, tk etc) the last one to install to make gcloud work is liblzma-dev (sudo apt install liblzma-dev)

Then gcloud works


gcloud version
Google Cloud SDK 420.0.0
bq 2.0.86
bundled-python3-unix 3.9.16
core 2023.02.24
gcloud-crc32c 1.0.0
gsutil 5.20
Updates are available for some Google Cloud CLI components.  To install them,
please run:
  $ gcloud components update
