Just had to tweak misc/calibre to allow python312 (otherwise the
default building would fail due to py311-sip6-6.8.6 conflicting with
py312-sip6-6.8.6). Seems to load up an existing book database fine
with everything built against python312

Other than that I now have my standard set of ~1600 pkgsrc-current
packages built after the python 3.12 switch, including libreoffice,
firefox, palemoon, every openjdk version & a few databases :)

(Only other issues are that none of firefox102, firefox115 or
thunderbird building, but that looks to have started sometime soon
after the 4th of July)

Many thanks for the update!
