Description Paul Howarth 2019-10-22 09:04:24 UTC

Hi,

I'm the maintainer of trac-spamfilter-plugin, which has a dependency on python2-httplib2. The trac application and its plugins have not yet been ported to Python 3, so there is a co-ordination effort going on in #1737930 to check the ongoing support status of the necessary dependencies for trac and its plugins.

Are you OK with continuing support for python2-httplib2 in Fedora 32 and possibly Fedora 33?

Comment 1 Kevin Fenzi 2019-11-01 16:42:28 UTC

I suppose... sure.

Comment 2 Paul Howarth 2019-11-06 08:45:03 UTC

Hi Kevin,

python-httplib has just been orphaned (https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/2253); will you pick it up?

Comment 3 Gwyn Ciesla 2019-11-06 19:56:25 UTC

I grabbed it. I maintain trac, so hey, why not.

Comment 4 Ben Cotton 2020-02-11 17:48:55 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 32 development cycle.
Changing version to 32.

Comment 5 Fedora Program Management 2021-04-29 15:59:09 UTC

This message is a reminder that Fedora 32 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 32 on 2021-05-25.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
Fedora 'version' of '32'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 32 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 6 Paul Howarth 2021-04-29 18:22:50 UTC

trac-spamfilter-plugin has been retired from Fedora 34 onwards and Python 2 support has been dropped from python-httplib2 from Fedora 34 onwards too so I think this can be closed now.
