Thank you Stefano and SRM for handling this so quickly! I'd like to note that the breakage is a little bit bigger than nova's test suite and the documentation for python3.13 itself. After an archive rebuild for Debian 13.6, I found at least 20 packages with FTBFS issues due to this bug (the 19 packages in the affects field for Bug #1141977, plus src:python3.13 itself). So I wonder if it would be feasible/possible (for this one time) to release Debian 13.7 a little bit before the initially planned date of 2026-09-12? Thanks.
