Description Tomáš Hrnčiar 2023-04-25 13:22:13 UTC
rmol fails to build with Python 3.12.0a7.

-- Requires Python with version 3.4; however just Python3 is considered here
CMake Error at config/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:230 (message):
  Could NOT find Python3 (missing: Python3_INCLUDE_DIRS Python3_LIBRARIES

The problem is that python 3.12 is missing in the cmake.

For the build logs, see:
https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/@python/python3.12/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/05840728-rmol/

For all our attempts to build rmol with Python 3.12, see:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.12/package/rmol/

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 3.12:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.12/

Let us know here if you have any questions.

Python 3.12 is planned to be included in Fedora 39. To make that update smoother, we're building Fedora packages with all pre-releases of Python 3.12.
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.

Successful build on Fedora Rawhide (F39): https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2023-65cadb990f

Comment 2 Fedora Release Engineering 2023-08-16 07:13:42 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 39 development cycle.
Changing version to 39.
