   No this is not trivial.
   
   unfortunately we use grpc, which is a steaming pile of google trash which breaks in mysterious ways multiple times a year, and won’t pass BuildStream tests at the latest grpc version even with Python 3.10, grpc for Python 3.11 needs to be the more recent broken version.
   
   I don’t think overall it’s realistic to try using fresh python versions without letting the ecosystem harden for at least 6 months or so, but we do cook docker images, which should be helpful for those to really want bleeding edge distros on their hosts.
