Description Miro Hrončok 2020-03-26 23:37:47 UTC
python-zope-interface fails to build with setuptools 46+

+ /usr/bin/python3 setup.py build '--executable=/usr/bin/python3 -s'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/builddir/build/BUILD/zope.interface-4.7.1/setup.py", line 26, in <module>
    from setuptools import setup, Extension, Feature
ImportError: cannot import name 'Feature' from 'setuptools' (/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/setuptools/__init__.py)
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.NoJLiv (%build)

See https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/issues/65#issuecomment-576010662

This blocks the Python 3.9 rebuild.

For the build logs with Python 3.9, see:
https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/@python/python3.9/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/01321115-python-zope-interface/

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

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.

This will be fixed in the next update I have prepared. The blocker here is an update of zope-testing: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-zope-testing/pull-request/2
