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, or if you need some more time, please let us know. The Python2 dependency comes from a bzr plugin. We could drop the bzr support. However, if there's any progress packaging breezy, it might be worthwhile depending on that instead of bzr. Thanks for the info. If bzr will be available for Python 3, will you be able to port the plugin? Or is the plugin already compatible with Python 3? The plugin is sufficiently short, therefore I think a port shouldn't be that hard, and I'd look at it. https://git.joeyh.name/index.cgi/etckeeper.git/tree/etckeeper-bzr/__init__.py Thank you. The current plan is to remove packages with dependency on Python 2 from Fedora 32 in the middle of November 2019. If you want to keep your package in Fedora after that date and you cannot port it to Python 3 yet, you need to request a FESCo exception for the package and all its Python 2 dependencies (even transitive) [1]. If you don't want to maintain it anymore, and nothing in Fedora uses it, you can retire it or just remove the Python 2 part from it (subpackage, module, bindings, etc.). If you're considering filing the exception request, let us know. We can help (for example, we can help find all the dependencies).
