Description Miro Hrončok 2019-06-03 14:41:48 UTC 
See https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.8/package/SoapySDR/ for actual logs. This report is automated and not very verbose, but feel free to ping me for help.
Comment 1 Matt Domsch 2019-06-03 15:45:29 UTC 
I can look at upgrading SoapySDR, however, it's only used by CubicSDR, which has a segfault which upstream is not interested in addressing given the versions of libraries we have linked into it in Fedora.  So fixing SoapySDR isn't all that critical.

Comment 2 Matt Domsch 2019-06-03 16:31:21 UTC 
Upstream comment:
From the log it looks like SoapySDR is just not getting linked to python. I think this is a fedora bug in python3-config, for example, python3 on ubuntu 18.04 reports the link libraries including libpython:

python3-config --ldflags
-L/usr/lib/python3.6/config-3.6m-x86_64-linux-gnu -L/usr/lib -lpython3.6m -lpthread -ldl  -lutil -lm  -Xlinker -export-dynamic -Wl,-O1 -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions
But on Fedora its only showing:

-L/usr/lib64  -lcrypt -lpthread -ldl  -lutil -lm -lm
Your other option is to pass an acceptable -DPYTHON3_LIBRARY=path_to_the_lib to cmake

(Let's have the conversation on GitHub, no need to send comments back and forth.)
