Please double-check that it's really Bookworm.
If you believe it is, then show us the full and unmangled output of:
$ lsb_release -a
$ sudo grep -rvh '^#' /etc/apt/sources.list* | grep -v '^$'
It looks like the Python versions shipped in various current Debian
releases are:
- Bookworm: Python 3.11 (3.11.2-6+deb12u3) https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/python3.11
- Trixie: Python 3.12 (3.12.6-1) https://packages.debian.org/trixie/python3.12
- Sid: Python 3.12 (3.12.7-1 on all but ia64, mips64el, sparc64) https://packages.debian.org/sid/python3.12
So short of pulling such a package from elsewhere, the only way I can
see that you'd get a 3.12.7-1 package version of Python is by running
Sid. And even then I would expect the package name to be "python3.12",
not just "python". (The "python3" package in Sid is, somewhat
curiously, at 3.12.6-1, same as Trixie but different from Sid's
"python3.12" package.)
