homebrew supports versions like that? i swear it was very anti- installing non-latest versions.
assuming it does, i think this would work. it's interesting that the homebrew formula installs the binary and then selectively sets up the python bindings, but ignores the 7 other language bindings... :)

they definitely used to make it very difficult but they deprecated homebrew/versions and made the process easier. there are some restrictions on the versions they will support but they roughly do support that syntax now

okay i think these are reproducible and good.
i'm not sure when they changed the format that results in this empty object to null change, but it was between 3.7.1 and 3.11.2.
