the immediate blocker when trying to run this Python project is that a native package deep within its dependency graph won’t compile without gcc-12 even though gcc 15 was released in August last year

that’s not even targeting gcc 14 which was released in 2024

and to hardcode this expectation without a Dockerfile or some Python-native mechanism to pull in a specific version of a C/Cxx compiler …

    Open source means you can fix it yourself, not expect a polished product. I know what you mean but like, at least the project is there.
