Description Miro Hrončok 2019-10-10 10:08:26 UTC

In line with the Mass Python 2 Package Removal [0], the following (sub)packages of capstone were marked for removal:

 * python2-capstone

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 32).

Please don't remove packages from Fedora 31, it is past Beta Freeze.
Please don't do this for Fedora 30/29 either, removing packages from a released Fedora branch is forbidden.

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].

Comment 1 Miro Hrončok 2019-10-10 10:11:44 UTC

Beware!

$ repoquery --repo=rawhide{,-source} --whatrequires python2-capstone

Returns a handful of packages, but they mostly only require libcapstone.so.4()(64bit) and that is provided by more packages:

$ repoquery --repo=rawhide --whatprovides 'libcapstone.so.4()(64bit)'
capstone-0:4.0.1-6.fc32.x86_64
python2-capstone-0:4.0.1-6.fc32.x86_64
python3-capstone-0:4.0.1-6.fc32.x86_64

Double check:

$ for pkg in $(repoquery --repo=rawhide{,-source} --whatrequires python2-capstone --qf "%{NAME}"); do echo $pkg; repoquery --repo=rawhide{,-source} --requires $pkg 2>/dev/null | grep capstone; echo; done

removed python2 from fc32/rawhide

Comment 3 Miro Hrončok 2019-10-10 22:40:26 UTC

Thanks!

Comment 4 Michal Ambroz 2019-10-15 01:16:54 UTC

removed from epel8 as well - the python2 package has not been build there either, so removing.
