Getting some errors installing.
Step #3 = dh-python: breaks python. Could be this issue.

Step #4, tried both pip install motioneye and pip2 install motioneye, both lead to error:

sudo pip2 install motioneye DEPRECATION: Python 2.7 reached the end of its life on January 1st, 2020. Please upgrade your Python as Python 2.7 is no longer maintained. pip 21.0 will drop support for Python 2.7 in January 2021. More details about Python 2 support in pip can be found at https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/development/release-process/#python-2-support pip 21.0 will remove support for this functionality.

and then step #5 leads to directory not found:

sudo cp /usr/local/share/motioneye/extra/motioneye.conf.sample /etc/motioneye/motioneye.conf cp: cannot stat '/usr/local/share/motioneye/extra/motioneye.conf.sample': No such file or directory

Wondering if this is down to the documented Debian issue linked above of if I did something wrong. (did an install on KDE Neon (so Ubuntu 20.04 last month, went flawlessly)

Running: Debian Bullseye (MX Linux 21), Python 2.7.18/Python 3.9.2.

dh-python is not part of motionEye install for Debian Bullseye. I don't know anything about MX Linux so don't know if that is your root cause. The other errors are because motionEye and its dependencies did not fully install.
I verified motionEye install on Debian 11 Bullseye on 22 Dec 2021. I can do so again if you feel the need.

This is the part that's odd to me because MX basically is just Debian stable under the hood (Bullseye now), with some extra tools added, but uses 100% stable repos.

Is there a way to backtrace the cause of dependencies not installing?

dh-python and python-is-python2 are fatally incompatible.
Because python-is-python2 cannot install and its modules and dependencies.
You might try purging dh-python, and starting the motionEye install over, but I don't know what in MX Linux depends on dh-python.

Bingo! apt-get purge dh-python and then going through it all again from the beginning worked!

Thanks for your help!
