#3 is the exact case where you also want to just pin everything. For an end-user desktop application, you ship a properly tested bundle, instead of trying to support all the different versions; as the end-user (unlike a developer using a lib on their own machine) should not ever have to interpret compatibility issues and should get a package that's been tested to work as a whole. If a distro ships python 3.6 and the app wants to use 3.7, then the end result must include python 3.7 as well, either by distro being capable of having both versions at the same time or the app needs to ignore the distro-python and ship its own version in the package. |

Good luck trying to get such a bundle packaged into any mainstream distribution.
