Description Tomas Orsava 2016-02-23 14:56:47 UTC
Upstream, this software supports Python 3. Please provide a Python 3
package for Fedora.


According to the Python packaging guidelines [0], software must be
packaged for Python 3 if upstream supports it.
The guidelines give detailed information on how to do this, and even
provide an example spec file [1].

The current best practice is to provide subpackages for the two Python
versions (called "Common SRPM" in the guidelines). Alternatively, if
nothing depends on your Python2 package, you can just switch to Python 3
entirely.

It's fine to do this in Rawhide only.


If anything is unclear, or if you need any kind of assistance with the
porting, you can ask on IRC (#fedora-python on Freenode), or reply here.
We'll be happy to help!

Ping?

No response as of yet from maintainer.

Comment 2 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2016-04-06 17:39:48 UTC
Well, this package could also be retired!
I don't think anything maintained use it anyway, so I'm about to retire it in a few days.

Comment 3 Tomas Orsava 2016-04-07 11:19:23 UTC
Is there some alternative for this package?

Comment 4 Jan Kurik 2016-07-26 04:32:11 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 25 development cycle.
Changing version to '25'.
