    As mentioned on issue 543, 3.6 is used for a number of long term releases.

    We just ran into this issue with 3.9.10:

    Run actions/setup-python@v2
    Version 3.9.10 was not found in the local cache
    Error: Version 3.9.10 with arch x64 not found

    3.6 is a duplicate of #544, close reason (#544 (comment)):

    Hello everyone. Python 3.6 reached end-of-life on Dec 12, 2021. Therefore, we won’t be supporting it with new versions of our hosted runners. If you need Python 3.6, it’s still available on ubuntu-20.04. There are a couple reasons we stop supporting end-of-life versions. They no longer have maintenance support, so there’s no path forward for fixing bugs or security issues. Also, they tend to run into compat issues with dependencies on newer operating systems, which is a source of confusing bugs.

    For now I'm going to close the issue.

    3.9.10 is a duplicate of #553:

    Python 3.9.10 is built for Ubuntu18, Ubuntu20. You can try to switch to ubuntu-20.04 tag.

    Hello @davidpellcb !
    The ubuntu-latest tag is being migrated to Ubuntu 22.04 (see details in the related announcement). We have not built Python 3.9.10 for Ubuntu 22.04. Python 3.9 is available for installation on Ubuntu 22.04 starting with Python 3.9.12. Could you please switch to the Python 3.9.12 (or higher) or specify Python version as 3.9 to install the latest available patch version?

        - name: Set up Python
          uses: actions/setup-python@v4
          with:
            python-version: '3.9'
