Description Miro Hrončok 2020-03-26 17:50:57 UTC
glade fails to build with Python 3.9.0a5.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/g-ir-scanner", line 103, in <module>
    from giscanner.scannermain import scanner_main
  File "/usr/lib64/gobject-introspection/giscanner/scannermain.py", line 36, in <module>
    from giscanner.dumper import compile_introspection_binary
  File "/usr/lib64/gobject-introspection/giscanner/dumper.py", line 28, in <module>
    from .gdumpparser import IntrospectionBinary
  File "/usr/lib64/gobject-introspection/giscanner/gdumpparser.py", line 25, in <module>
    from xml.etree.cElementTree import parse
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'xml.etree.cElementTree'

This is directly caused by bz1817649.


For the build logs, see:
https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/@python/python3.9/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/01321051-glade/

For all our attempts to build glade with Python 3.9, see:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.9/package/glade/

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.

Sorry for the noise.
