python-reportlab fails to build with Python 3.9.0a4. + /usr/bin/python3 docs/genAll.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "/builddir/build/BUILD/reportlab-3.5.34/docs/genAll.py", line 46, in <module> _genAll(verbose) File "/builddir/build/BUILD/reportlab-3.5.34/docs/genAll.py", line 4, in _genAll from reportlab.lib.testutils import setOutDir File "/builddir/build/BUILDROOT/python-reportlab-3.5.34-3.fc33.x86_64/usr/lib64/python3.9/site-packages/reportlab/lib/testutils.py", line 21, in <module> from reportlab.lib.utils import isCompactDistro, __rl_loader__, rl_isdir, asUnicode File "/builddir/build/BUILDROOT/python-reportlab-3.5.34-3.fc33.x86_64/usr/lib64/python3.9/site-packages/reportlab/lib/utils.py", line 10, in <module> from base64 import decodestring as base64_decodestring, encodestring as base64_encodestring ImportError: cannot import name 'decodestring' from 'base64' (/usr/lib64/python3.9/base64.py) See https://docs.python.org/3.9/whatsnew/3.9.html#removed "base64.encodestring() and base64.decodestring(), aliases deprecated since Python 3.1, have been removed: use base64.encodebytes() and base64.decodebytes() instead." For the build logs, see: https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/@python/python3.9/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/01257097-python-reportlab/ For all our attempts to build python-reportlab with Python 3.9, see: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.9/package/python-reportlab/ Testing and mass rebuild of packages is happening in copr. You can follow these instructions to test locally in mock if your package builds with Python 3.9: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.9/ Let us know here if you have any questions. Python 3.9 will be included in Fedora 33. To make that update smoother, we're building Fedora packages with early pre-releases of Python 3.9. A build failure prevents us from testing all dependent packages (transitive [Build]Requires), so if this package is required a lot, it's important for us to get it fixed soon. We'd appreciate help from the people who know this package best, but if you don't want to work on this now, let us know so we can try to work around it on our side.
