If you want to install Python 3.14 on Ubuntu, the release delivers new interpreter capabilities for developers, data scientists, and system administrators. Python 3.14 adds optional free-threaded builds with --disable-gil (PEP 703), typing updates, and improved error messages. Upstream security support extends through October 2030, making it suitable for development environments and forward-looking projects that need the newest features without waiting for Ubuntu’s default interpreter to catch up.
Ubuntu maintains separate system and user Python interpreters to protect system utilities that depend on specific versions. You can install Python 3.14 alongside Ubuntu’s default Python 3.13 (26.04 LTS), Python 3.12 (24.04 LTS), or Python 3.10 (22.04 LTS) without conflicts.
This guide covers installing Python 3.14 via the Deadsnakes PPA or compiling from source, managing pip with PEP 668 rules for the system Python, creating isolated virtual environments, and keeping the system interpreter untouched.
When to Choose Python 3.14 on Ubuntu
Compare Python Releases for Ubuntu
Use the comparison below to decide whether Python 3.14 fits your Ubuntu environment or if an earlier interpreter better matches stability or vendor certification requirements.
| Python Version | Availability on Ubuntu | Choose It When | Trade-offs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Install Python 3.8 on Ubuntu | Deadsnakes PPA or source build only | Legacy applications pinned to EOL runtimes, compatibility testing, transitional migrations | End-of-life October 2024, no upstream security fixes, container isolation recommended |
| Install Python 3.10 on Ubuntu | Ubuntu 22.04 LTS default, Deadsnakes PPA for 24.04 LTS | Conservative production fleets targeting Canonical coverage through October 2026 | Older feature set, many libraries optimize for 3.11+, PPA required on 24.04 LTS |
| Install Python 3.11 on Ubuntu | Deadsnakes PPA for 24.04/22.04, source builds on 26.04 | CPU-bound workloads needing major speed gains and precise error locations | Community-maintained packages only, not default on any supported Ubuntu release |
| Install Python 3.12 on Ubuntu | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS default, Deadsnakes PPA for 22.04 LTS | General-purpose development with Canonical-managed security updates through October 2028 | Ubuntu 22.04 LTS requires PPA, fewer concurrency enhancements than newer releases |
| Install Python 3.13 on Ubuntu | Ubuntu 26.04 LTS default, Deadsnakes PPA for 24.04/22.04 | Teams validating newer optimizations with support through October 2029 | Community packages lack guaranteed security SLAs; some wheels lag initial releases |
| Python 3.14 | Deadsnakes PPA (24.04/22.04 only; patch updates may lag), source builds for 26.04 and custom needs | Early adopters validating the newest interpreter changes with support through October 2030 | Not in Ubuntu repositories, PPA updates may trail upstream, ecosystem wheels may take time to catch up |
Therefore, stay on Ubuntu’s default Python (3.13 on 26.04 LTS, 3.12 on 24.04 LTS, 3.10 on 22.04 LTS) for Canonical-managed security. Choose Python 3.14 on developer workstations, CI runners, or isolated services that benefit from the latest interpreter changes. Avoid replacing Ubuntu’s system Python.
Pre-Flight Checklist
Before installing Python 3.14, verify your system state to avoid redundant installs or conflicts:
# Check if Python 3.14 is already installed
python3.14 --version 2>/dev/null && echo "Python 3.14 already present" || echo "Python 3.14 not found, safe to install"
# Confirm your Ubuntu version (target LTS releases only)
lsb_release -rs
# Check available disk space (source builds need 300+ MB)
df -h /usr/localExample output for supported LTS releases:
22.04 24.04 26.04
Disk space output will vary by system but should show free space under /usr/local:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda1 250G 40G 198G 17% /usr/local
If Python 3.14 is already installed, you can skip to the “Work in Python 3.14 Virtual Environments” section unless you need to rebuild with custom flags (like --disable-gil).
Key Reasons to Choose Python 3.14
Python 3.14 is attractive for:
- Free-threaded runtime progress: Continued PEP 703 work with optional
--disable-gilbuilds for concurrency experiments. - Typing and annotation updates: Better tooling for large projects and stricter type enforcement where needed.
- Improved error messages: Clearer tracebacks and diagnostics when debugging modern codebases.
- Security window through October 2030: A fresh five-year upstream support horizon for new deployments.
- Ecosystem forward-compatibility: Early testing helps validate wheels and dependencies before production cutovers.
Choose Your Python 3.14 Installation Method
Because Ubuntu LTS repositories do not ship Python 3.14, use the Deadsnakes PPA on 22.04/24.04 or compile from source when you need custom builds or run Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. Keep the system interpreter untouched.
| Method | Channel | Version | Updates | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Deadsnakes PPA (22.04/24.04) | Launchpad PPA | Latest 3.14.x | APT updates | Ubuntu 22.04/24.04 LTS users who want packaged installs |
| Source compilation | Python.org source | Latest 3.14.x | Manual rebuild | Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, custom prefixes, or --disable-gil builds |
For most users on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS or 24.04 LTS, the Deadsnakes PPA is recommended because it delivers packaged updates without a long build. Use the source method on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS or when you need custom flags.
Never replace /usr/bin/python3 or uninstall the system interpreter. Use versioned binaries like python3.14 and virtual environments for isolation.
These steps cover Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, 24.04 LTS, and 26.04 LTS. The Deadsnakes PPA publishes packages for jammy and noble only, while source compilation works across all supported LTS releases. The commands are the same on supported versions when you follow the appropriate method.
Understand Support and Compatibility Limits
- Not in Ubuntu repositories: Python 3.14 requires the Deadsnakes PPA on Ubuntu 22.04/24.04 or source builds on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS.
- Deadsnakes PPA is community maintained: Monitor security advisories and be ready to rebuild from source if patched packages lag.
- Ecosystem catch-up period: Some third-party wheels lag new 3.14 releases. Check project compatibility notes and run
pip checkafter installing dependencies. - Free-threaded builds remain experimental: Use
--disable-gilfor research and benchmarking, not production workloads. Library compatibility varies significantly.
Python 3.14 reaches upstream end-of-life in October 2030, per the official release schedule (PEP 745). Plan migrations to Python 3.15 or newer before that date if you require ongoing security updates.
Python 3.14 Pre-Installation Steps
Update System Before Proceeding
Refresh package lists and apply available updates before adding PPAs or compiling from source to avoid dependency conflicts.
Open a terminal and run:
sudo apt updateOptionally upgrade installed packages:
sudo apt upgradeInstall Python 3.14 on Ubuntu
Use the Deadsnakes PPA on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS or 24.04 LTS for packaged installs, or compile from source on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS and for custom builds.
Install Python 3.14 via Deadsnakes PPA
This method is supported on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (jammy) and 24.04 LTS (noble). If you are on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, skip to the source build method.
Add the Deadsnakes PPA and refresh your package cache:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa
sudo apt updateConfirm the PPA provides Python 3.14 packages before installing:
apt-cache policy python3.14python3.14:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 3.14.2-1+noble1
Version table:
3.14.2-1+noble1 500
500 https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/deadsnakes/ppa/ubuntu noble/main amd64 Packages
On Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, the Candidate line ends with
+jammy1; on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, it ends with+noble1.
Configure APT Pinning (Recommended)
Before installing, configure APT pinning to ensure only Python 3.14 packages come from this PPA. This step is optional but recommended for stability:
cat <<EOF | sudo tee /etc/apt/preferences.d/python3.14.pref
Package: *
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-deadsnakes
Pin-Priority: 100
Package: python3.14*
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-deadsnakes
Pin-Priority: 700
EOFThis creates a two-rule pinning configuration. The first rule deprioritizes all PPA packages, while the second rule prefers only Python 3.14 packages.
Install Python 3.14 packages:
sudo apt install python3.14 python3.14-venv python3.14-devThe maintainer states there is no guarantee of timely security updates. Production systems must track CVEs and be ready to recompile or sandbox workloads until patches arrive. Use the PPA for development, CI, or testing and rely on Ubuntu’s default Python for system tooling.
Monitor the Python Security Response Team page and the CVE.org search for Python for vulnerabilities. Subscribe to the Python Security Announcements mailing list to receive notifications when security patches are released.
Python 3.14 Availability: The Deadsnakes PPA publishes packages for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (noble) and 22.04 LTS (jammy) only. Patch releases can lag upstream, so use the source build method if you need a newer point release immediately.
Verify the installation:
python3.14 --versionPython 3.14.2
Your output will show the current 3.14.x point release available from the PPA.
Full PPA Installation Example Walkthrough: On a fresh Ubuntu 24.04 LTS system, here is what a complete installation looks like:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa
sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3.14 python3.14-venv python3.14-devReading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done python3.14 is already the newest version (3.14.2-1+noble1). Setting up python3.14-dev (3.14.2-1+noble1) ... Setting up python3.14-venv (3.14.2-1+noble1) ... Processing triggers for man-db (2.12.0-4build2) ... Done.
Next, verify the installation and test essential modules (package version strings will move to newer 3.14.x point releases over time):
python3.14 -c "import ssl, sqlite3, bz2; print('Python 3.14 ready on Ubuntu')"Python 3.14 ready on Ubuntu
Install Additional Python 3.14 Packages (Optional)
Add optional components when you need debugging symbols, dbm bindings, or Tkinter GUI support:
First, install python3.14-dbg for debugging and profiling:
sudo apt install python3.14-dbgNext, add python3.14-gdbm for GNU dbm bindings:
sudo apt install python3.14-gdbmThen include python3.14-tk for Tkinter GUI applications:
sudo apt install python3.14-tkAdditionally, test the free-threaded runtime without compiling from source using python3.14-nogil and python3.14-gdbm-nogil:
sudo apt install python3.14-nogil python3.14-gdbm-nogilVerify the free-threaded binary (installed as python3.14t) is available:
python3.14t --versionPython 3.14.2
Finally, pull python3.14-examples for sample scripts used in documentation and quick sanity checks:
sudo apt install python3.14-examplesThe PPA includes a
python3.14-fullmeta-package. Install only the components you need, or usepython3.14-fullfor a bundled set of standard modules similar to the Ubuntu system interpreter.python3-fullstill aligns with Ubuntu’s default Python for your release.
Combine packages in one command if you need multiple extras, including the no-GIL variants and examples package for testing:
sudo apt install python3.14-full python3.14-nogil python3.14-gdbm-nogil python3.14-dbg python3.14-gdbm python3.14-tk python3.14-examplesCompile Python 3.14 from Source on Ubuntu
Alternatively, compile Python 3.14 when PPA packages are unavailable or when you need custom prefixes, optimization flags, or the free-threaded build. Source installs coexist with Ubuntu’s system interpreter.
Download Python 3.14 Source Tarball
Download the latest 3.14.x release from python.org and extract it. The snippet below uses curl to discover the newest patch version automatically:
First, install baseline download utilities if they are missing on minimal images:
sudo apt install curl wget ca-certificatesPY314_VERSION="$(curl -fsSL https://www.python.org/ftp/python/ | grep -oE '3\.14\.[0-9]+' | sort -V | tail -1)" || { echo "Failed to fetch Python version"; exit 1; }
[ -z "$PY314_VERSION" ] && { echo "No 3.14.x version found"; exit 1; }
wget "https://www.python.org/ftp/python/${PY314_VERSION}/Python-${PY314_VERSION}.tar.xz" || exit 1
tar -xf Python-${PY314_VERSION}.tar.xz
cd Python-${PY314_VERSION}If discovery fails or your host is air-gapped, visit the Python.org downloads page to find the latest 3.14.x release and substitute the version number manually. The script will exit with an error message rather than silently proceeding with missing versions.
Install Build Dependencies
Next, install libraries needed for SSL, compression, readline, Tk, and UUID support:
sudo apt install build-essential zlib1g-dev libncurses-dev libgdbm-dev libgdbm-compat-dev \
libnss3-dev libssl-dev libsqlite3-dev libreadline-dev libffi-dev libbz2-dev liblzma-dev \
uuid-dev libexpat1-dev tk-dev pkg-config makeThese package names work on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, 24.04 LTS, and 26.04 LTS.
Configure and Build Python 3.14
Then compile with optimization and link-time optimization under /usr/local/python3.14 to avoid touching the system interpreter:
./configure --enable-optimizations --with-lto --with-ensurepip=install --prefix=/usr/local/python3.14
make -j"$(nproc)"
sudo make altinstallTo evaluate the free-threaded runtime, add
--disable-gilto the configure command. This experimental build is intended for testing and benchmarking, not production.
make altinstall keeps /usr/bin/python3 untouched while adding /usr/local/python3.14/bin/python3.14.
Register Libraries and Test the Build
Afterward, point the dynamic linker at your custom installation, refresh the cache, and add a convenience symlink:
echo '/usr/local/python3.14/lib' | sudo tee /etc/ld.so.conf.d/python3.14.conf
sudo ldconfig
sudo ln -s /usr/local/python3.14/bin/python3.14 /usr/local/bin/python3.14Verify the build and ensure critical modules compiled successfully:
python3.14 --version
python3.14 -c "import ssl, sqlite3, bz2; print('Source build is healthy')"Python 3.14.2 Source build is healthy
Your output will show the specific 3.14.x version you compiled from source.
If the second command fails, install missing -dev packages, rerun ./configure, and rebuild.
Install Pip for Python 3.14
Pip typically ships with the interpreter, but verifying ensures package management works without touching system directories.
Bootstrap Pip via ensurepip
Keep pip scoped to Python 3.14 instead of the system interpreter. For PPA installs, install the venv module (provides ensurepip). For source builds, skip the APT step if you configured --with-ensurepip=install and run ensurepip directly.
# PPA installs only
sudo apt install python3.14-venv
# PPA and source builds
python3.14 -m ensurepip --upgrade
python3.14 -m pip --versionpip 25.3 from /usr/local/lib/python3.14/dist-packages/pip (python 3.14)
ensurepip installs pip inside Python 3.14’s site-packages even if the system interpreter differs. If your build was configured without ensurepip, create a virtual environment to get pip and keep packages isolated:
python3.14 -m venv ~/venvs/py314-base
source ~/venvs/py314-base/bin/activate
pip --versionpip 25.3 from /home/ubuntu/venvs/py314-base/lib/python3.14/site-packages/pip (python 3.14)
Bootstrap Pip with get-pip.py
For air-gapped hosts or custom builds, download the bootstrap script and run it with Python 3.14:
wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
python3.14 get-pip.py
rm get-pip.pyThis installs pip, setuptools, and wheel together. Download a fresh copy each time you repeat the process.
Manage Packages with python3.14 -m pip
Invoke pip through the versioned interpreter to avoid cross-version conflicts:
python3.14 -m pip install package_name
python3.14 -m pip install --upgrade package_name
python3.14 -m pip uninstall package_nameSwap package_name with libraries such as numpy, fastapi, or django.
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and 26.04 LTS mark the system Python (
python3) as externally managed (see PEP 668). If you runpython3 -m pip install <package>, pip blocks system-wide installs unless you use a virtual environment or pass--break-system-packages. Use –break-system-packages only when you fully understand the risks: it allows pip to write into system directories and can break apt upgrades or system utilities. Prefer virtual environments for all workloads.
Work in Python 3.14 Virtual Environments
Virtual environments isolate dependencies per project. For expanded workflows, see the Python virtual environment guide.
Create a Python 3.14 Virtual Environment
Choose a directory for environments (for example ~/venvs) and create one with Python 3.14:
python3.14 -m venv ~/venvs/py314Replace ~/venvs/py314 with any path that fits your workflow.
Activate the Virtual Environment
Activate the environment so python and pip point to the local interpreter:
source ~/venvs/py314/bin/activateThe shell prompt updates with the environment name, indicating activation.
Deactivate the Virtual Environment
When finished, run:
deactivateThis returns the shell to the system Python context.
Troubleshooting Common Python 3.14 Installation Issues
Missing Development Headers During Compilation
If configure reports disabled modules for SSL, bz2, or sqlite, identify missing dependencies and reinstall them. Review the configure output directly:
./configure --enable-optimizations --with-lto --with-ensurepip=install --prefix=/usr/local/python3.14 2>&1 | grep "disabled"Example output showing disabled modules:
The following modules have been disabled: _hashlib _ssl _bz2 _sqlite3 nis ossaudiodev
Install the corresponding development headers and reconfigure:
sudo apt install libssl-dev libbz2-dev libsqlite3-dev
./configure --enable-optimizations --with-lto --with-ensurepip=install --prefix=/usr/local/python3.14
make -j"$(nproc)"
sudo make altinstallVerify all modules loaded correctly after rebuild:
python3.14 -c "import ssl, sqlite3, bz2; print('All modules present')"Shared Library Linking Errors
If python3.14 reports error while loading shared libraries: libpython3.14.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file, verify the library path and refresh the linker cache.
Example error message:
/usr/local/python3.14/bin/python3.14: error while loading shared libraries: libpython3.14.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file (No such file or directory)
Locate the library:
find /usr/local -name "libpython3.14.so*"/usr/local/python3.14/lib/libpython3.14.so.1.0 /usr/local/python3.14/lib/libpython3.14.so
Update the linker cache for the custom prefix:
sudo ldconfig /usr/local/python3.14/libOr register the specific prefix for persistent library loading:
echo "/usr/local/python3.14/lib" | sudo tee /etc/ld.so.conf.d/python3.14.conf
sudo ldconfigVerify the interpreter now loads correctly:
/usr/local/python3.14/bin/python3.14 --versionPython 3.14.2
PIP Externally Managed Environment Errors
On Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and 26.04 LTS, pip blocks installs to the system interpreter (python3) without a virtual environment. This does not affect Python 3.14 installed from the PPA or source.
error: externally-managed-environment X This environment is externally managed -> To install Python packages system-wide, try apt install xyz, where xyz is the package you are trying to install. If you wish to install a Python package using pip, you must create a virtual environment first.
Create a venv instead of bypassing protections:
python3 -m venv myproject_env
source myproject_env/bin/activate
pip install package-nameOnly use --break-system-packages in disposable environments:
python3 -m pip install --break-system-packages package-nameAPT Errors After Adding the PPA
If apt errors mention Python after adding the Deadsnakes PPA, ensure you did not modify the system /usr/bin/python3 symlink. It should point to Ubuntu’s default interpreter.
Check the symlink:
ls -la /usr/bin/python3lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Nov 12 12:15 /usr/bin/python3 -> python3.12
On Ubuntu 22.04 LTS the symlink points to
python3.10; on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS it points topython3.13.
Restore it if needed:
# Ubuntu 26.04 LTS
sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/python3.13 /usr/bin/python3
# Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/python3.12 /usr/bin/python3
# Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/python3.10 /usr/bin/python3Always call Python 3.14 explicitly with python3.14 instead of altering system links.
Virtual Environment Creation Fails
If python3.14 -m venv reports that ensurepip is unavailable, the venv module is missing. Install the venv package for PPA builds or confirm --with-ensurepip=install for source builds.
Example error:
Error: ensurepip is not available in this environment.
For PPA installations, install the venv module:
sudo apt install python3.14-venv
python3.14 -m venv myenv
source myenv/bin/activateFor source builds, verify --with-ensurepip=install was specified during configure, or bootstrap pip via get-pip.py as an alternative.
Update or Remove Python 3.14
Update Python 3.14 Packages
sudo apt update
sudo apt install --only-upgrade python3.14 python3.14-venv python3.14-devIf you installed optional packages (such as python3.14-nogil or python3.14-tk), add them to the upgrade command.
Update Source-Compiled Python 3.14
Use the script below to rebuild the latest 3.14.x release when you installed from source:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -e
INSTALL_PREFIX="/usr/local/python3.14"
BUILD_DIR="/opt/python3.14-build"
LOG_FILE="$BUILD_DIR/update.log"
PY314_BIN="$INSTALL_PREFIX/bin/python3.14"
for cmd in gcc make curl wget tar; do
if ! command -v "$cmd" >/dev/null 2>&1; then
echo "Error: $cmd is required but not installed."
echo "Run: sudo apt install build-essential curl wget"
exit 1
fi
done
if [ ! -x "$PY314_BIN" ]; then
echo "Error: $PY314_BIN not found."
echo "Install Python 3.14 from source before running this update script."
exit 1
fi
CURRENT_VERSION="$("$PY314_BIN" --version | awk '{print $2}')"
LATEST_VERSION="$(curl -fsSL https://www.python.org/ftp/python/ | grep -oE '3\\.14\\.[0-9]+' | sort -V | tail -1)"
if [ -z "$LATEST_VERSION" ]; then
echo "Error: Could not fetch the latest Python 3.14.x version."
exit 1
fi
echo "Current version: $CURRENT_VERSION"
echo "Latest version: $LATEST_VERSION"
if [ "$CURRENT_VERSION" = "$LATEST_VERSION" ]; then
echo "Already up to date."
exit 0
fi
sudo install -d -m 0755 "$BUILD_DIR"
sudo chown "$USER":"$USER" "$BUILD_DIR"
cd "$BUILD_DIR"
rm -rf Python-*/
wget "https://www.python.org/ftp/python/${LATEST_VERSION}/Python-${LATEST_VERSION}.tar.xz"
tar -xf "Python-${LATEST_VERSION}.tar.xz"
rm "Python-${LATEST_VERSION}.tar.xz"
cd "Python-${LATEST_VERSION}"
./configure --enable-optimizations --with-lto --with-ensurepip=install --prefix="$INSTALL_PREFIX"
make -j"$(nproc)"
sudo make altinstall
NEW_VERSION="$("$PY314_BIN" --version | awk '{print $2}')"
echo "$(date): Updated to $NEW_VERSION" >> "$LOG_FILE"
echo "Successfully updated to $NEW_VERSION"Avoid automating this with cron. Compilation can fail due to missing dependencies, failed tests, or network issues. Always run the script manually so you can monitor the output and address problems before they affect your system.
Verify the updated version after the script completes:
/usr/local/python3.14/bin/python3.14 --versionPython 3.14.2
Remove Python 3.14 Packages
Python 3.14 is not the system interpreter on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, 24.04 LTS, or 22.04 LTS. Removing it will not break apt as long as you leave
/usr/bin/python3unchanged. Verify your release before removal.
Uninstall Python 3.14 from the PPA if you no longer need it:
sudo apt remove --purge python3.14 python3.14-venv python3.14-dev
sudo apt autoremoveConfirm your Ubuntu version before removal:
lsb_release -rs22.04 24.04 26.04
Remove the Deadsnakes PPA
Clean up the PPA if you no longer require Python 3.14 packages:
sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:deadsnakes/ppa
sudo rm -f /etc/apt/preferences.d/python3.14.pref
sudo apt updateClean Up Source-Compiled Installations
Remove source installs and related linker entries if you compiled Python 3.14 manually.
Warning: The following commands permanently delete the source-compiled Python 3.14 installation, including all modules and libraries under
/usr/local/python3.14, plus any build files in/opt/python3.14-buildif you used the update script. Virtual environments created with this interpreter will stop working. Back up anything you need first, for examplecp -r /usr/local/python3.14 ~/python3.14-backup.
sudo rm -f /usr/local/bin/python3.14
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/python3.14
sudo rm -f /etc/ld.so.conf.d/python3.14.conf
sudo rm -rf /opt/python3.14-build
sudo ldconfigAdjust the path if you used a custom prefix such as /opt/python3.14.
Conclusion
Python 3.14 brings the newest interpreter features and free-threaded runtime experiments to Ubuntu through the Deadsnakes PPA or source compilation. Your system can run Python 3.14 alongside Ubuntu’s default interpreter using versioned binaries and virtual environments, while you track security advisories through the October 2030 support window.
