Description

@corneliusroemer

The recently released Python protobuf package version 4.25.8 does not include Python versions 3.12/3.13 in the trove classifiers - suggesting that these Python versions are not supported.

protobuf/python/setup.py

Lines 415 to 418 in a4cbdd3

'Programming Language :: Python :: 3.9',
'Programming Language :: Python :: 3.10',
'Programming Language :: Python :: 3.11',
],

Is this intentional?

This came up as a question in conda-forge's protobuf feedstock: conda-forge/protobuf-feedstock#239 (comment)

In principle, it would be nice if lower major versions still supported the latest Python versions. But it makes sense if you purposefully don't add support for new Python major versions to old protobuf major versions when new Python minor versions come out.
