Description Tomáš Hrnčiar 2021-12-01 12:52:48 UTC
python-transforms3d fails to build with Python 3.11.0a2.

+ /usr/bin/python3 setup.py build '--executable=/usr/bin/python3 -s'
/builddir/build/BUILD/transforms3d-0.3.1/setup.py:12: DeprecationWarning: The distutils package is deprecated and slated for removal in Python 3.12. Use setuptools or check PEP 632 for potential alternatives

AttributeError: module 'configparser' has no attribute 'SafeConfigParser'. Did you mean: 'RawConfigParser'?

Removed from the configparser module: the SafeConfigParser class, the filename
property of the ParsingError class, the readfp() method of the ConfigParser
class, deprecated since Python 3.2. (Contributed by Hugo van Kemenade in

For all our attempts to build python-transforms3d with Python 3.11, see:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.11/package/python-transforms3d/

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 3.11:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.11/

Let us know here if you have any questions.

Python 3.11 is planned to be included in Fedora 37. To make that update smoother, we're building Fedora packages with all pre-releases of Python 3.11.
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.

Comment 1 Miro Hrončok 2021-12-01 12:59:37 UTC
Updating the bundled versioneer should fix this.

Comment 2 Ben Cotton 2022-02-08 21:23:35 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 36 development cycle.
Changing version to 36.

Comment 3 Tomáš Hrnčiar 2022-02-10 10:57:19 UTC
Changes in configparser module were reverted in Python 3.11 and will be part of Python 3.12, thus I am closing this bugzilla. However, I highly encourage you to work with the upstream to fix it so we won't have to deal with it next year.
