Hello Pythonistas,
we are probably going to package python3.12 soon for all Fedora releases.
Unfortunately, building Python for 32bit ARM has been very tedious lately, as the Koji build keeps restarting and the build takes 24+ hours to finish.
Considering 32bit ARM is gone from Fedora 37+, I was considering the ExcludeArch it from the python3.12 package even on older Fedoras, to make the builds easier.
Would anybody be sad about that?
Makes sense. It's a new package. I see nothing wrong with excluding it, to see what breaks & who complains.

Which kind of computers and hardware use 32-bit ARM these days?
Raspberry Pi Zero 2 (2021), Raspberry Pi 3 (2018), Raspberry Pi 4 (2019) use 64-bit ARM, whereas older Raspberry Pi 1 (2012), Raspberry Pi 2 (2015) and Raspberry Pi Zero (2015) use 32-bit ARM.

Not at all.
While I still have a RPi 3 running on armv7l, it will be upgraded to aarch64 eventually and I don't expect anything to break by not having Python3.12 available for it.

I'm fine with it. The less ARM in my life, the better.

For example, the 3.10.8 update for Fedora 35 was built on ARM in nearly 58 hours:
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=92962390
The Fedora 36 build is still running for 59+ hours:
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=92962389
Other architectures finished within 1 hour, mostly in around 35 minutes.
