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 …

There are plenty of python libraries which have compiled components, such as pandas, which is compiled on install via
pip install. Some package managers have precompiled binaries, but you would need to make sure you have the right version for the project.
