Python 3.10 in bookworm
Why is the current intention not to ship the python3.10 package in
bookworm?
I was trying to run some experiments in a virtual environment a few
days ago, and it turns out that several of the Python packages I
needed do not yet run on Python 3.11. I was saved by being able to
run in a Python 3.10 venv and download all the required packages from
PyPI. If bookworm shipped without python3.10, I would not have been
able to do my work. Removing python3.10 from bookworm will seriously
affect many of our users in a similar situation to me.
Best wishes,
Julian
P.S. We should also fix #1036268 if we do keep python3.10 in bookworm;
I'm happy to do an NMU if needed.
