Description Petr Viktorin 2016-02-20 11:22:50 UTC 
The file /usr/bin/bitly from the python3-bitlyapi RPM has a /usr/bin/python2 shebang, pulling in Python 2 as a dependency.

Please switch the shebang to use Python 3.

Hi Ralph!
Sorry for reopening the bug, but I noticed it was not fixed yet. If you do

`rpm -q --requires -p python3-bitlyapi-0.1.1-10.fc23.noarch.rpm`
you still get `/usr/bin/python2` in the results.

I see you tried to change the shebang using sed, and that can solve the issue in many cases, but it is only a solution of last resort. First it is important to try to install the correct version in the first place.

After you do `%py2_install` the binary will bi installed into %{_bindir}, so when you do `%py3_install` afterwords, setuptools (sometimes) choose not to overwrite it, and leave the Python 2 version in there—this is a known issue.

Therefore it is recommended to do `rm %{buildroot}%{_bindir}/*` right after `%py2_install` so that the Python 3 version is always installed in there instead.

I tested it on your package, and it successfully resolves the problem. I removed the `sed` as it no longer serves a purpose when this method is used.
