re.error: global flags not at the start of the expression at position 994

Global inline flags (e.g. (?i)) can now only be used at the start of the regular expressions. Using them not at the start of expression was deprecated since Python 3.6. (Contributed by Serhiy Storchaka in bpo-47066.)

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

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 Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski 2022-06-10 16:18:18 UTC
The above error was in python-genshi internal code, nothing to do with lazygal. It seems to have been fixed about a month ago.
