Is Python 3.11 supported?

Is Python 3.11 supported by aesara? It seems to be listed in its trove classifier list but when I run the test suite against 3.11, I get 139 test failures. Looking at a few of them, they seem to be caused by some C-level incompatibility, e.g.:

E               /tmp/portage/dev-python/aesara-2.8.11/homedir/.aesara/compiledir_140467563507264/scan_perform/mod.cpp: In function ‘void __Pyx_AddTraceback(const char*, int, int, const char*)’:

I could try providing more details but the build log is 1.1G of size.

Thanks for pointing this out! We'll update the classifiers.

Actually, this looks like an issue in our use of Cython. If so, we might be able to fix the issue right away.

Thank you, that would be really great. We'd like to switch Gentoo to Python 3.11 around june, so fixing it soon would be of great help to our users.

Release 2.8.12 should fix this.

Thank you! I can confirm that the tests pass for me now.
