Dear Maintainers,

The default Python 3 version on Debian Trixie is set to be 3.13, while Django
4.2 is currently planned for inclusion.

The issue is that, according to the official Django documentation, Django 4.2
is only supported on Python versions 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, and 3.12 (with 3.12
being added in version 4.2.8) [1].

Additionally, the end-of-life (EOL) for Django 4.2 does not align with the EOL
for Debian Trixie, which could result in a short support lifespan for Django
4.2 within this release.

Therefore, would it be possible to package Django 5.2 in Debian Trixie instead
of Django 4.2?
