Description
Description
The current TensorFlow runtime images only support Python versions up to 3.11.0 release candidate 1 (rc1). This limitation can hinder users who rely on newer Python versions for compatibility, security, or feature improvements.
Expected Behavior
TensorFlow runtime images should support stable Python versions higher than 3.11.0 rc1, ensuring compatibility with the latest Python releases.
Proposed Solution
Include the deadsnakes PPA repository in Dockerfiles for TensorFlow runtime images to provide access to newer Python versions on older Ubuntu releases.
