Yes yesterday evening the warning appeared again. Does it have any changes on the functionality of the database if you host the file by yourself?

@franco: Are there any plans to level python up to 3.15?

In a world flooded by AI emergencies-likely some things will have to change.

Beginning of the year and prior 3.11 was more or less abandonware upstream although still very much the default in Fbsd 14.x and theoretically supported upstream.

Things got so bad that a move mid release was necessary. So shortly after 26.1 we moved on to 3.13.

Why 3.13 ? Iirc things weren't much better with 3.12 and unusable with 3.14 which is still the latest stable version until 3.15 is officially available.


So I'm expecting 3.15 to be available as soon as possible - meaning that everything depending on it can be built and works correctly. Whether that's going to be an easy job or a waiting game where all the upstream projects adjust for 3.15 and the changes it brings remains to be seen.


That's how I remember it watching from the sidelines.

FreeBSD is still on 3.12. We might consider going forward when FreeBSD is on 3.13. The ports tree is not overly reliable for versions newer than the FreeBSD default version so making smaller steps when FreeBSD has caught up seems best.

What newsense said also applies. We mainly moved to 3.13 for a bit of performance gains (and had to jump through a few hoops to build all ports correctly).
