It might be possible to provide some functionality which only works if the current Python is >= 3.8, and otherwise either falls back to non-parallel or raises an error. 2020-08-30 10:05:46 UTC+2, Reimundo Heluani: > > What's the minimal Python version that Sage has to accept, > and more importantly where do I track this? Currently we aim to support Python 3.6 to 3.8. Using Sage Trac's query engine to look for all tickets with "python" in the ticket summary, https://trac.sagemath.org/query?order=id&desc=1&summary=~python we can find some relevant tickets. One of them especially is about adopting a clear policy in that regard: - Adopt the “time window-based” policy for support of Python versions from NEP 29 https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/30384 See also: - Support minimal system Python version 3.6 (for venv) https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/29033 merged in Sage 9.2.beta2, as you can find out by visiting sage-release and putting the ticket number, here 29033, in the search field. More tips for finding out in which commit or in which version some change happened were recently discussed on sage-devel: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/sage-devel/7pq6iJH45KU/discussion Support for Python 3.9 is discussed at: - Support Python 3.9 https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/30184 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
