The guides I've written such as 
https://switch2osm.org/serving-tiles/manually-building-a-tile-server-debian-12/#Configure-renderd 
already caveat this somewhat ("The version of Mapnik provided by Debian 
12 at release was 3.1...").  I'll need to update that anyway as people 
may carry over their own customised renderd.conf files, the error when 
it is set up incorrectly has changed and the location now depends on 
architecture.

It'd obviously be nice if the new "renderd.conf" worked out of the box 
though.

What actually needs to be done?  Testing and documentation I can 
certainly help with, but beyond that would be a challenge.
