I just released 3.11.7 on , and Anthony Sottile released 3.12.1 and 3.13.0a2.

Yeah, from now on, I'll be helping him get the releases out as part of the regular CPython release process.

It seems that current "best practice" for installing 3.11 on a recent debian build.. is to build it from source.. (no binary packages available) (doing this as part of a Docker build for added joy).. The install is two lines for the latest version.

cazabon,

You can generally safely use the "deadsnakes" ppa/repo to install alternate Pythons, even though they're primarily an Ubuntu thing.

One caution, which bit me when 12 was released - before doing a major Debian upgrade that bumps the default Python to one you have installed from , remove the deadsnakes version first. I got ... interesting breakage that took me a bit to figure out the right fix for.

But there's also AppImages... https://github.com/niess/python-appimage/releases

come along so rarely I always forget something since the last time I upgraded.

-> this time, and that was fun 😂

learned; perhaps this will save someone else some time.

If you have 3.11 installed on Bullseye from the "" ppa, uninstall it before attempting the upgrade. It conflicts with the Python 3.11 package in Bookworm in a way that causes the upgrade to partway through. Then you have to manually fix it all...
