BUG: Premature documentation for Python 3:13 (should be dev-3:13) #1243

@mor10

Description

@mor10

As per #1221 in https://github.com/devcontainers/images/blob/main/src/python/README.md:

Configuration

You can directly reference pre-built versions of this image by using the image property in .devcontainer/devcontainer.json or updating the FROM statement in your own Dockerfile with one of the following:

  • mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/python:3 (latest)
    (...)
  • mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/python:3.13 (or 3.13-bookworm, 3.13-bullseye to pin to an OS version)

These URIs terminate in 404.

The 3.13 images are not listed here: https://mcr.microsoft.com/v2/devcontainers/python/tags/list
Nor here: https://hub.docker.com/r/microsoft/devcontainers-python

The functioning images have version name dev-3.13 https://github.com/devcontainers/images/blob/main/src/python/history/dev.md#variant-313-bullseye

To avoid people running into these errors and not finding meaningful answers, I recommend either publishing the 3.13 series of images or updating README.md to show:

  • mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/python:dev-3.13 (or dev-3.13-bookworm, dev-3.13-bullseye to pin to an OS version)
