Comment 3 Irina Boverman 2021-09-13 21:35:34 UTC

Upstream is no longer supporting python2, we can't provide this sub-package.

Comment 4 myeyre 2021-09-14 01:42:44 UTC

python2-qpid-proton is required by python2-pyngus, which is required during Openstack installation.

centos-openstack-train repo provide an outdated one, and can't meet requirement of python2-pyngus of current version in epel.

To prevent breaking Openstack installation, please consider to provide it again.

...
Error: Package: python2-pyngus-2.3.0-1.el7.noarch (epel)
           Requires: python2-qpid-proton >= 0.28.0
           Available: python2-qpid-proton-0.26.0-2.el7.x86_64 (centos-openstack-train)

Comment 5 Michał Dulko 2021-09-14 08:55:50 UTC

Yep, I encountered this during OpenStack installation too.

Comment 6 myeyre 2021-09-19 10:35:59 UTC

It seems that:

1) Although EPEL main repo no longer provide it, an old version of python2-qpid-proton can be installed from EPEL archive(https://archives.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/epel/)

2) RDO don't reqire EPEL to install, my installation goes smoothly on a clean CentOS without EPEL.

IMO python2-pyngus dependency failure at main repo still should be fixed though.

Comment 7 Irina Boverman 2021-09-21 13:30:27 UTC

Upstream is no longer supporting python 2, and we cannot build python2-qpid-proton. I made it available in copr: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/qpid/qpid/build/2783962/
And we will remove python2-pyngus from EPEL 7 as well. The only other way to continue distributing both packages in EPEL 7 is to remove recent update to 0.35.0 and stop updating it for newer releases. Is this what you want?

Comment 8 Irina Boverman 2021-09-21 13:31:36 UTC

And if copr distribution works for you, I can add python2-pyngus to copr as well. Please let me know.
