Description William Moreno 2015-11-26 18:42:20 UTC
Upstream, this software supports for 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!

Comment 1 Jan Kurik 2016-02-24 14:02:57 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 24 development cycle.
Changing version to '24'.

More information and reason for this action is here:

Comment 2 Petr Viktorin (pviktori) 2016-04-19 14:58:31 UTC
Michael, do you need any help with adding PYthon 3 support?

Comment 3 Michael S. 2016-04-21 21:28:54 UTC
Nope, just forgot about this bug.

I pushed a package in rawhide and F24 candidate (but forgot to include that bug in the changelog :/)

Let me see how if i remember how to use bodhi :)

Comment 4 Dominika Krejčí 2016-05-11 09:41:40 UTC
As this package is Python 3 compatible, it no longer blocks PYTHON3 porting bug." Only do this if the bug is NEW or ASSIGNED.

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2017-07-25 19:34:22 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '24'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 6 Petr Viktorin (pviktori) 2017-07-26 09:15:04 UTC
Already fixed! Thanks you; closing the bug.
