kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Opus 5.5 bf9c5be173 fix(dev-python): cap the bootstrap Python at the newest minor ansible-core supports

Fedora 45 defaults to Python 3.15. ansible-core 2.21, which the unpinned
`ansible` extra still resolves to (ansible 14.5.0 pins ~=2.21.5), calls
dataclasses._is_type, which 3.15 removed, so the Workspace (fedora:latest)
job died before the first playbook (run 41491308729).

install.sh now picks and installs the highest Python between
PYTHON_MIN_MINOR and PYTHON_MAX_MINOR (3.11 to 3.14) on apt, rpm and
pick_python_bin, and fails loudly when only newer interpreters exist. On
Fedora 45 it installs python3.14. Raise PYTHON_MAX_MINOR once ansible ships
ansible-core 2.22.

Python Development Utilities

Description

This Ansible role sets up a Python development environment on Arch Linux. It includes Python itself, the pip package manager, and builds on the general developer persona to support scripting, application development, data science, and more.

Learn more at the Python Official Site, the Arch Wiki - Python, and Wikipedia – Python.

Overview

This role provides the essential tooling for Python developers, enabling immediate use of python and pip from the command line. It supports both general-purpose scripting and advanced software engineering workflows.

Cosmos

The diagram places Python Development Utilities in the Infinito.Nexus cosmos: the components it deploys (capabilities), the central services it consumes (dependencies), and its outward reach (federation and bridged external networks).

    subgraph deps [Dependencies]
        dep_dev_core["dev-core 💻 ⚙️"]
    end
    subgraph role [dev-python 💻]
        svc_python["python"]
    end
    dep_dev_core -- "1:1" --> svc_python

Solid 1:1 edges are fixed relationships; dashed 0..1 edges are conditional (enabled only in matching deployments); red 0..0 edges are turned off in this role. Node markers show the role's deploy modes (💻 host, 🐳 compose, 🐝 swarm); ❌ marks a service that is explicitly turned off, and ⚙️ an Ansible role dependency declared in meta/main.yml.

Purpose

To simplify and standardize the provisioning of Python-ready environments for developers, students, data scientists, and automation engineers.

Features

Installs Python and Pip: Ensures the interpreter and package manager are available.
Prefers Python 3.11+: Installs Python 3.11+ where available and makes it the default via /usr/local/bin/python3 and /usr/local/bin/pip3.
Persona Integration: Extends dev-core with Python-specific tools.
Foundation for Further Stacks: Ideal starting point for Flask, Django, scientific computing, and automation.

Supported distro families in the installer script:

Arch Linux
Debian
Ubuntu
Fedora
CentOS / RHEL

Customization

Easily extend this role with:

Python virtualenv tools (python-virtualenv, pyenv)
Popular libraries (numpy, requests, flask)
Framework-specific roles (e.g., dev-python-django)
