There is a problem updating Python 3.12 from 3.12.0 to 3.12.1 using your repositories in Ubuntu 22.04. Unable to update packages libpython3.12-testsuite and python3.12-full. The specific syntax error occurs while trying to update the package libpython3.12-testsuite:

Setting up libpython3.12-testsuite (3.12.1-1+jammy1) ...
  File "/usr/lib/python3.12/test/test_future_stmt/badsyntax_future10.py", line 3
    from __future__ import print_function
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
SyntaxError: from __future__ imports must occur at the beginning of the file

Which is the dependency problem to install python3.12-full.

ah the same problem as #265 but now in 3.12

Yes, I have seen. It's not an urgent problem. But creating an issue with a hope that this will grab some attention and the rebuilt package will be delivered sooner. =]

jammy2 and focal1 should have this fix -- they'll be built and available once launchpad is done!

I don't know if it's a joke, but this afternoon (EET) I see the another issue with installing the updated libpython3.12-testsuite package. =)

This time, the syntax error is about old style print usage...

Setting up libpython3.12-testsuite (3.12.1-1+jammy2) ...
  File "/usr/lib/python3.12/test/test_lib2to3/data/bom.py", line 2
    print "BOM BOOM!"
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'. Did you mean print(...)?

@asottile, do you know what is going on? 👆

[asottile]

don't ping me -- look at #273
