python-cocotb fails to build with Python 3.9.0a2.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/builddir/build/BUILD/cocotb-1.2.0/./bin/combine_results.py", line 85, in <module>
    rc = main()
  File "/builddir/build/BUILD/cocotb-1.2.0/./bin/combine_results.py", line 55, in main

AttributeError: 'ElementTree' object has no attribute 'getiterator'

See https://docs.python.org/3.9/whatsnew/3.9.html#removed

"Methods getchildren() and getiterator() in the ElementTree module have been removed. They were deprecated in Python 3.2. Use functions list() and iter() instead. The xml.etree.cElementTree module has been removed."

Testing and mass rebuild of packages is happening in copr. You can follow these instructions to test locally in mock if your package builds with Python 3.9:

Let us know here if you have any questions.

Python 3.9 will be included in Fedora 33. To make that update smoother, we're building Fedora packages with early pre-releases of Python 3.9.
A build failure prevents us from testing all dependent packages (transitive [Build]Requires), so if this package is required a lot, it's important for us to get it fixed soon.
We'd appreciate help from the people who know this package best, but if you don't want to work on this now, let us know so we can try to work around it on our side.
