[Impact]
DisplayCAL, when released, was only compatible with Python 3.8-3.11. However, all it needed was WxWidgets 4.1.1 and a few patches to make it work with Python 3.12. Without, it would simply fail.
[Test Case]
* Install displaycal
* Run displaycal
Expected: Run normally
Result:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/displaycal", line 4, in <module>

raise RuntimeError(
RuntimeError: Need Python version >= 3.8 <= 3.11, got 3.12.2
[What could go wrong]
The DisplayCAL developers do not yet support Python 3.12 until the release of WxWidgets 4.2.0 since it could crash upon closure. I (Erich Eickmeyer) have not experienced this in my testing, however, it is plausible. Additionally, the patches that were used to make this work were developed after the release of DisplayCAL 3.9.12, but still applied cleanly to 3.9.11 and made it function correctly.

[Impact]
DisplayCAL, when released, was only compatible with Python 3.8-3.11. However, all it needed was WxWidgets 4.1.1 and a few patches to make it work with Python 3.12. Without, it would simply fail. Namely, it needed to be patched to remove the Python version check upon launch.
[Test Case]
* Install displaycal
* Run displaycal
Expected: Run normally
Result:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/displaycal", line 4, in <module>
from DisplayCAL.main import main
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/DisplayCAL/main.py", line 27, in <module>
raise RuntimeError(
RuntimeError: Need Python version >= 3.8 <= 3.11, got 3.12.2
[What could go wrong]
The DisplayCAL developers do not yet support Python 3.12 until the release of WxWidgets 4.2.0 since it could crash upon closure. I (Erich Eickmeyer) have not experienced this in my testing, however, it is plausible. Additionally, the patches that were used to make this work were developed after the release of DisplayCAL 3.9.12, but still applied cleanly to 3.9.11 and made it function correctly.
To be clear, the issue with WxWidgets is a separate bug and outside the scope of this bug.
[Other Information]
Currently the tests have to be skipped otherwise they segfault with Python 3.12 and the entire application fails to run, hence the inclusion of the patch `05_skip-test-wioth-python-3.12.patch`. I would, however, argue that the application running trumps its internal tests segfaulting. Furthermore, the upstream developers have yet to figure out why those tests are segfaulting on Python 3.12 and therefore don't consider it a priority. The goal here is to make the application run.
Original bug report:
I have upgraded to the noble beta today, and displaycal fails to start.
The package dependencies request python 3.12, but the actual software needs 3.11 (or older).
