Poem

🐰 I hopped from forty-one to forty-two today,
Added libatomic along the way,
Python twelve now leads the trail,
A tidy bump — a little tail-wag and a happy trail! 🥕

Check name	Status	Explanation
Description Check	✅ Passed	Check skipped - CodeRabbit’s high-level summary is enabled.
Docstring Coverage	✅ Passed	No functions found in the changes. Docstring coverage check skipped.
Title Check	✅ Passed	The pull request title "Increase CURRENT DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT to Fedora 42" directly and accurately describes the primary change in the changeset: upgrading the container images from Fedora 41 to Fedora 42 across multiple workflow files (main.yml and push.yml). The title is specific, clear, and concise, allowing a teammate reviewing history to immediately understand the main objective. While the PR includes secondary changes such as adding libatomic to dependencies and setting python_requires in setup.cfg, the title appropriately focuses on the most prominent change without requiring exhaustive coverage of all modifications, which aligns with the principle that titles need not detail every aspect of the changeset.
