Thanks for all these updates!
One thing I notice with python-pytest is that /usr/bin/pytest now names
python3.12 in it's #! line.
packing mistake.
python312-pytest-9.0.2-2 corrects it but you will need to reinstall
python39-pytest-8.3.4-1 for the correct /usr/bin/pytest
This can be confusing if you have python3 set up to point to python3.9,
because you can have a situation where something runs OK, but fails
under pytest, because you haven't also installed the equivalent
python312 modules it needs.
Maybe pytest (and py.test) should be managed by alternatives (or perhaps
not installed, so /usr/bin/pytest-3.nn is always used)?
Theorically yes, but not really a priority
It also seems like python-pytest3nn should now depend on python3nn-
pygments?
