Hi there

I'm a bit confused by those two statements in combination:

I understand "rebase python to python 3.13" as `python` being `python3`
being `python3.13`. In this case, the whole stack needs a rebuild,
doesn't it?

In contrast, providing "a python 3.13 environment" would mean provding
just the versioned `python3.13` and some versioned packages
`python3.13-*` enough for a tox 3.13 env or such.

I know it's "just in EPEL", but as soon as someone builds an EPEL
package against it, that package pulls in python3.13. And if it's really a
rebase then ...

Cheers
Michael
