Description Miro Hrončok 2019-04-27 09:15:32 UTC
In line with the Mass Python 2 Package Removal [0], the following (sub)packages of python-backports-unittest_mock were marked for removal:

 * python2-backports-unittest_mock

According to our query, those (sub)packages only provide a Python 2 importable module. If this is not true, please tell us why, so we can fix our query.

Please remove them from your package in Rawhide (Fedora 31).

Please don't do this for Fedora 30, consider the Final Freeze.

As said in the change document, if there is no objection in a week, we will remove the package(s) as soon as we get to it. This change might not match your packaging style, so we'd prefer if you did the change. If you need more time, please let us know here.

If you do the change yourself, it would help us a lot by reducing the amount of packages we need to mass change.

We hope this doesn't come to you as a surprise. If you want to know our motivation for this, please read the change document [0].

I propose to retire this instead. On python 3, the backport is not needed. Repoquery --whatrequires yields nothing.

+1 to retire. Feel free to just do so, or I can try and get to it next week...

Comment 3 Miro Hrončok 2019-05-06 05:31:33 UTC
Retired.
