When I was younger (...hush) we would call this a brown paper bag release,
but actually, we shouldn’t hide from our mistakes. We’re only human. So, please enjoy: <https://discuss.python.org/t/python-3-13-5-is-now-available-yes-really/95211#p-254481-python-3135-1>Python
3.13.5
https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3135/ <https://discuss.python.org/t/python-3-13-5-is-now-available-yes-really/95211#p-254481-this-is-the-fifth-maintenance-release-of-python-313-2>This
is the fifth maintenance release of Python 3.13

Python 3.13 is the newest major release of the Python programming language,
and it contains many new features and optimizations compared to Python
3.12. 3.13.5 is the fifth maintenance release of 3.13.

3.13.5 is an expedited release to fix a couple of significant issues with
the 3.13.4 release:

- gh-135151 <https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/135151>: Building
extension modules on Windows for the regular (non-free-threaded) build
failed.
- gh-135171 <https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/135171>: Generator
expressions stopped raising TypeError (when iterating over non-iterable
objects) at creation time, delaying it to first use.
- gh-135326 <https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/135326>: Passing
int-like objects (like numpy.int64) to random.getrandbits() failed, when
it worked before.

Several other bug fixes (which would otherwise have waited until the next release) are also included. Special thanks to everyone who worked hard the
last couple of days to fix these issues as quickly as possible.
