Plans to update DNF in AIX Toolbox repository to be backed by newer Python version? (3.9 going out of support soon)

Hello,

current version of DNF relies on Python3.9. This version of python will go out of (security) support in October 31st. Could you please share the roadmap to update it to a version that depends on newer version (e. g. Python 3.12 which is available in the repositories)?

Thank you,

jose

Hi,

We are currently working on Python 3.12 updates, and migration plans/testing is going on. The roadmap will be similar to the Python 3.7 to Python 3.9 migration, which will be shared once the testing phase is complete.

Thanks for checking in.
