Incompatible with the default Ubuntu 22.04 LTS python version, just FYI (uses 3.10 whereas the minimum is now 3.12).

Yes, that's pretty typical. I think there's a general assumption if you're using older python you'll probably stick to Django LTS 5.2 from this April which still supports Python 3.10.

They only drop python versions right after LTS (which is part of why they increase the major version at that point). https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/faq/install/#what-pyth...

Also Django LTS 5.2 is supported a year longer than Ubuntu 22.04. (April 2028 vs April 2027)
