Walkthrough

The CI workflow container image was updated from Fedora 41 to 42 in two jobs, and a minimum Python version requirement of >=3.12 was added to setup.cfg, establishing baseline compatibility constraints.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
CI container version .github/workflows/main.yml	Updated container image tag from fedora:41 to fedora:42 in development_environment_checks and lowest_supported_python jobs
Python version constraint setup.cfg	Added python_requires = >=3.12 under [options] section to enforce minimum Python version requirement

Poem

🐰 From Fedora's prior nest to version forty-two we hop,
While Python 3.12 becomes the floor we cannot drop,
Simple constraints and container leaps—the changes help align,
Dependencies and images dance, all by design!

Description Check	✅ Passed	Check skipped - CodeRabbit’s high-level summary is enabled.
Title Check	✅ Passed	The pull request title "Increase CURRENT DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT to Fedora 42" clearly addresses the primary change in the changeset: updating the container image from Fedora 41 to Fedora 42 in the workflow files. The title is specific, concise, and directly corresponds to the stated PR objective. While the changeset also includes an addition of python_requires = >=3.12 in setup.cfg, this appears to be a secondary or related change, and the instructions acknowledge that a title does not need to cover every detail of the changeset.
Docstring Coverage	✅ Passed	No functions found in the changes. Docstring coverage check skipped.

🔇 Additional comments (3)

setup.cfg (1)

25-25: LGTM! Python version constraint aligns with CI upgrade.

The addition of python_requires = >=3.12 is appropriate, as Fedora 42 ships with Python 3.13 as the default system Python. This constraint ensures compatibility with the updated development environment while still allowing usage with Python 3.12, which is tested in the lowest_supported_python CI job.

Note: This is a breaking change for users on Python versions below 3.12.

.github/workflows/main.yml (2)

33-33: LGTM! Container image update is valid.

The update to fedora:42 is appropriate, as Fedora 42 has been released and aligns with the PR objective to update the development environment.

---

53-66: LGTM! Container update and job configuration are consistent.

The update to fedora:42 is appropriate. The lowest_supported_python job correctly tests Python 3.12 (lines 55-66), which aligns with the new python_requires = >=3.12 constraint added to setup.cfg.
