python3.13-freethreading-debug Subpackage of python3.13

The provisional Free Threading (PEP 703) build of Python. Debug build. CPython’s global interpreter lock (“GIL”) prevents multiple threads from executing Python code at the same time. The GIL is an obstacle to using multi-core CPUs from Python efficiently. This build of Python is built with the --disable-gil option. It lets the interpreter run Python code without the global interpreter lock and with the necessary changes needed to make the interpreter thread-safe. This package provides a version of the Python runtime with numerous debugging features enabled, aimed at advanced Python users such as developers of Python extension modules.
