Bug 1348410

This audit is motivated by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=995060

This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 23. 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bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '23'.

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 23 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.

So any general suggestions or advice on how to rectify this issue (in tracked packages)?

(It almost seems like something that could be better fixed in python itself)

I missed your message earlier. I don't have any general tips at the moment.

Something like https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Perl/Dot-In-INC-Removal would be nice.

For Python 3, using the -I flag in shebang does the trick:

$ cat > foo.py
print('boom!')

$ cat > script
#!/usr/bin/python3
import foo
print('imported')

$ chmod +x script

$ ./script 
boom!
imported

$ sed -i 's/python3/python3 -I/' script 

$ cat ./script 
#!/usr/bin/python3 -I
import foo
print('imported')

$ ./script 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./script", line 2, in <module>
    import foo
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'foo'

There seems to be 1 bug left blocking this... in initial-setup? Perhaps someone could fix that and we can close this out?

Note that


a) 8 of the bugs were closed as EOL. So in fact, likely never actually fixed.

b) The last remaining open bug is for RHEL 7, so likely not going to be fixed either.


I propose we close this tracker as WONTFIX, unless somebody actually wants to drive this.
