Description of problem:
I noticed today that Python 2 could not import gdbm:

$ python -c "import gdbm"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: /usr/lib64/python2.7/lib-dynload/gdbmmodule.so: undefined symbol: gdbm_errno


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Comment 1 Charalampos Stratakis 2018-01-11 10:43:38 UTC

It seems a rebuild is required due to the gdbm update.

Comment 3 Miro Hrončok 2018-01-11 16:25:51 UTC

Also Fedora 27 now.

Comment 4 Fedora Update System 2018-01-11 16:27:47 UTC

python2-2.7.14-5.fc27 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 27. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-69044af317

Comment 5 Charalampos Stratakis 2018-01-11 16:56:58 UTC

For the record the rebuild has been done only on F27, as on rawhide we are blocked due to a glibc change which should be resolved soon [0].

As soon as that is fixed, I'll rebuild python2 for rawhide.

Comment 6 Fedora Update System 2018-01-12 15:50:49 UTC

python2-2.7.14-5.fc27 has been pushed to the Fedora 27 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for
instructions on how to install test updates.

Comment 7 Miro Hrončok 2018-01-16 15:08:46 UTC

Note that there is https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/gdbm-1.13-6.fc27 and after that, this update errors. Since this is already on it's way to stable, maybe we'll just need to push another rebuild later.

(I'm commenting here, because Bodhi is somehow broken.)
