This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 31 development cycle. Changing version to '31'. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 31 development cycle. Changing version to 31. Please answer the above questions. If you don't the package can be orphaned: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/F31_Mass_Python_2_Package_Removal#Information_on_Remaining_Packages If you need any information or help, please let us know. I'd like keep gdesklets , because I still use "Quote of the Day" and still not found any replacement . Alright! Please ask for a FESCo exception for keeping gdesklets and its dependencies. Here's an example ticket for that: https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/2208 We track the Python 2 dependencies here: https://fedora.portingdb.xyz/pkg/gdesklets/ Could you check which ones are necessary? It seems that the critical ones are: pygtk2, gtk2. libglade2, pycairo, pygobject2, python2-numpy. Check with their maintainers Python 2 plans for those don't conflict with yours. (If there's a bug like this one filed for them, that's a good place to have the conversation.) As for Python 2: the "python2" package will be replaced with "python27". We can help you with the switch. As for python2-pytest, python2-nose and python2-setuptools: those will probably need (co-)maintainers to stay in Fedora. I need at least gnome-python2-devel https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=37586015 https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/6015/37586015/root.log BUILDSTDERR: Problem: conflicting requests DEBUG util.py:585: BUILDSTDERR: - nothing provides python2-devel(x86-64) >= 2.3.0 needed by gnome-python2-devel-2.28.1-27.fc32.x86_64 DEBUG util.py:587: (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages) Workarounded that in gnome-python2-2.28.1-28.fc32. So you need "only" python27 and gnome-python2-devel. Hence you also need the dependencies: pyorbit pygtk2 pycairo pygobject2 python2-numpy python2-setuptools Is that correct? Note that gDesklets is discontinued. The project is no longer updated since 2011 and the official website is no longer available. The unofficial website http://gdesklets.info/archive/ maintains an archive of new and old desklets. Would conky serve as a replacement for your use case? https://github.com/brndnmtthws/conky https://github.com/addy-dclxvi/conky-theme-collections/blob/master/novoselic/res/quote-online https://github.com/addy-dclxvi/conky-theme-collections/blob/master/novoselic/res/quote-offline (In reply to Miro Hrončok from comment #8) > Workarounded that in gnome-python2-2.28.1-28.fc32. > > So you need "only" python27 and gnome-python2-devel.

I think after we got [1] and after my repo [2] [1] https://launchpad.net/gdesklets [2] https://github.com/sergiomb2/gdesklets > Would conky serve as a replacement for your use case? > > https://github.com/brndnmtthws/conky > https://github.com/addy-dclxvi/conky-theme-collections/blob/master/novoselic/ > res/quote-online > https://github.com/addy-dclxvi/conky-theme-collections/blob/master/novoselic/ > res/quote-offline Yes , seems that is what I'm looking for . I will check soon . Thanks *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1777627 *** |
