Description:
Debian 13 (codename Trixie) was released recently. MySQL hasn't added packages for this version on the download page or in the APT repo.

It looks like Oracle MySQL expects to only add support for newer OS versions with new versions of MySQL. This means users of Debian need to wait with upgrading to Debian 13 until MySQL 9.5 etc is released.

Debian 13 has been in the works for many years and has been available in the testing distribution.

How to repeat:
See description

Suggested fix:
I think that for both Fedora and Debian Oracle should make the current versions of MySQL available once they are close to being released so that users of these operating systems can upgrade once the release has been made official.

Debian 13 is now released.

Also I was able to install by using the MySQL Bookworm repository however there is one dependency that has been renamed in Trixie so you will need to install it manually until MySQL repo has repackaged for it.

# Debian 13 workaround
wget https://deb.debian.org/debian/pool/main/liba/libaio/libaio1_0.3.113-4_amd64.deb
apt-get install ./libaio1_0.3.113-4_amd64.deb

I also experienced issues trying to install the mysql-connector-python and found the simplest workaround was to force via pip:

# Install Python MySQL Connector
pip3 install mysql-connector-python --break-system-packages
