-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
When running Django’s test suite on Linux with Python 3.12 or higher, the
installation of pylibmc fails due to two main reasons: the absence of
libmemcached development headers on fresh or CI environments, and the lack
of official support in pylibmc for Python 3.12+. This failure causes the
entire test setup to break, even though pylibmc is not essential for
running the tests themselves.

While there is an open ticket (#36153) proposing the complete removal of
pylibmc from the test requirements, this issue represents a more immediate
hurdle for contributors trying to run the test suite on up-to-date Python
environments — particularly on non-Windows systems.
