1. python-3.11.7: build a new 'package python' …

   Some more relevant version numbers (apps and libs):
   
     meson:           1.3.0
     snakemake:       7.32.4
     spyder:          5.5.0
   
     numpy:           1.25.2
     pandas:          2.1.4
     matplotlib:      3.8.2
     scipy:           1.11.4
     scikit-image:    0.22.0
     jupyterlab:      4.0.9
     torch:           2.1.2+cu118
     tensorflow:      2.14.1
   
   Tensorflow 2.14.1 was build against /pkg/cuda-11.8.0-0.
   It requires now bazel 6.1 (or higher), which in turn
   is only happy with a more recent JRE, so java21 was choosen.
   
   Tensorflow's CPU architecture is no longer 'nehalem', but
   'broadwell'. Most of our cluster machines should be able to
   handle this.
   
   A more general change is the deprecation of source builds via:
   
     'python setup.py build; python setup.py install'
   
   Now replaced with the recommended way:
   
     'pip install .', or
     'pip install git+https://github.com/xyz/abc.git@v1.0'
   
   As for the QT5 bindings, here nothing was changed. For QT5
   I expect no dramatic changes anymore. At some point QT6 will
   join in or replace QT5.
   
   Other changes and removals:
   
     'helen' does not build anymore, removed
     Older 'gmpy' was replaced with 'gmpy2'
   
   Note on the strategy to avoid downgrades:
   
     If a package requires 'pkgXY' it installs the
     most recent versison. A follow up might want a slightly
     older version, so before 'pkgXY' is installed, just
     install this older requirement with oldie==1.2.3
     (see urllib3 as example)
