Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/3] drop support for Python 3.7 and Debian 10
Date: Mon,  4 Sep 2023 11:57:17 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230904095720.154738-1-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)

Debian 10 is not anymore a supported distro, since Debian 12 was
released on June 10, 2023, and it is also the last distro that
supports Python 3.7.  

Both Debian 10 and Python 3.7 required a substantial amount of
code in mkvenv.py, and John also mentioned that asyncio had changes
related to cancellation in Python 3.8.  To start the discussion, here
is a first sample of cleanups that are enabled by supporting only Python
3.8 and newer.
