Description Kamil Páral 2017-07-13 13:43:15 UTC
Description of problem:
In Rawhide, koji package is split into koji, python2-koji and python3-koji. The python2 library is therefore no longer part of the koji package. The downside is that now I need to maintain conditionals in my specfile like:

%if 0%{?fedora} >= 27
Requires:       python2-koji >= 1.10.0
%else
Requires:       koji >= 1.10.0
%endif

Could you please add Provides: python2-koji to koji package in Fedora 24-26? That would make it easier for people to depend on the python2 library (just a single Requires: python2-koji) instead of maintaining conditionals.

Thanks a lot.

and mikem says:
Fedora really should be creating koji 1.13 builds for all supported Fedora releases

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
koji-1.12.0-2.fc26.noarch

Comment 1 Neal Gompa 2017-07-13 15:01:29 UTC
In all honesty, this is not a bug. The actual bug is that koji needs to be updated across all branches.

Comment 2 Martin Langhoff 2017-07-31 19:17:08 UTC
A related issue is breaking fedpkg on EL6 - BZ#1476909

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2018-05-03 07:56:10 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 26 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 26. 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bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '26'.

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 26 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 4 Fedora End Of Life 2018-05-29 12:17:39 UTC
Fedora 26 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2018-05-29. Fedora 26
is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any
further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
