Description Miro Hrončok 2021-06-21 11:43:18 UTC 
Description of problem:
The package proxyfuzz fails to build the SRPM in Koji: Macro %python_sitelib failed to expand.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
proxyfuzz-20190404-18.fc35

How reproducible:
build the package in Koji


Steps to Reproduce:
1. fedpkg clone proxyfuzz
2. cd proxyfuzz
3. fedpkg build

Actual results:
BuildError: error building srpm, mock exited with status 1; see build.log or root.log for more information
...
error: attempt to use unversioned python, define %__python to /usr/bin/python2 or /usr/bin/python3 explicitly
  4<          (%error)
  3<        (%__python)
  2<      (%)
error: /builddir/build/SPECS/proxyfuzz.spec: line 1: Macro %python_sitelib failed to expand
  1<    (%global)
  0<  (%)

Expected results:
Package builds.

Additional info:
This is caused by https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/PythonMacroError and can be solved by removing an unused first line from the specfile.
Comment 1 Fedora Release Engineering 2021-07-11 04:23:05 UTC 
Dear Maintainer,

your package has an open Fails To Build From Source bug for Fedora 35.
Action is required from you.

If you can fix your package to build, perform a build in koji, and either create
an update in bodhi, or close this bug without creating an update, if updating is
not appropriate [1]. If you are working on a fix, set the status to ASSIGNED to
acknowledge this. If you have already fixed this issue, please close this Bugzilla report.

Following the policy for such packages [2], your package will be orphaned if
this bug remains in NEW state more than 8 weeks (not sooner than 2021-08-16).

A week before the mass branching of Fedora 36 according to the schedule [3],
any packages not successfully rebuilt at least on Fedora 34 will be
retired regardless of the status of this bug.
