[bug#68416] [PATCH] python: add 3.20 - 3.16 to the version search list
With Python 3.12 out now, and 3.13 out in ~9 months, the existing runway is running out. Bump up to 3.20 for the next Automake release. Applied, thanks. Not proposing to try anything for our upcoming release, but I wonder if there is some more general way to handle Python versions? We don't have to laboriously list every possible version for anything else. As things are, I'm tempted to include 4.20-4.1 too, because their next major incompatibility will probably come sooner rather than later ... wdyt? --thanks, karl.
