I think Cython's deal with regard to this is: """ If you use Cython, we will try hard to cover up the adaptations for upcoming (and existing) CPython versions for you. But you'll likely have to rerun Cython on your project before a new CPython major release comes out. """ That's obviously not ideal for projects that end up being unmaintained. But then again, you can't freeze time forever, and /any/ change to a dependency can end up being fatal to them. I personally think that rerunning Cython when a new CPython release comes out is an acceptable price to pay for a project. In the worst case, this can even be done by others, as you suggested as a common Fedora practice elsewhere, Victor. (To be fair, I'll have to add that new Cython versions are also part of those dependencies that might end up introducing incompatible changes and forcing your code to be adapted. The upcoming Cython 3.0 release will be such a case. However, given our compatibility record so far, I still consider Cython a very fair deal.)
