Todd A. Jacobs | Rubyist<p><a href="https://ruby.social/tags/TIL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TIL</span></a> conda 25.1.1 has access to a <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/Python" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Python</span></a> 3.13.2 runtime, but doesn't support installing it into conda base. I wouldn't wory too much as long long as the conda packages are kept up to date with a periodic `conda update --all` but the <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/semver" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>semver</span></a> failure bugs me. I expect minor &amp; patch versions to be backwards-compatible.</p><p>I'm sure the reason is library dependencies, but that just begs the question. Do any <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/Pythonistas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Pythonistas</span></a> know why conda's base doesn't support the current stable runtime?</p>
C.<p>Fellow <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Pythonistas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Pythonistas</span></a>, are these issues better with `<a href="https://mindly.social/tags/uv" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uv</span></a>` or `<a href="https://mindly.social/tags/rye" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rye</span></a>` or some other tool?
