Description Karolina Surma 2023-10-20 11:15:25 UTC

This is an early notice about Python 3.13 which will be the main Python
in Fedora 41+ (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Python3.13).

We detected that libsbml invokes '2to3' during its build time.
2to3 and lib2to3 will be removed from Python 3.13.

Python-maint has already started testing Fedora packages with Python 3.13 alphas.
We'll appreciate unblocking libsbml as soon as possible to enable smooth integration.

Possible solutions to this issue:
- (preferred) port your package to Python 3 upstream
- patch the source code of the package using 2to3 and add the patch to dist git
2to3 is still present in Fedora 37, 38, 39, 40.

As far as I can tell, this was resolved when the package was updated to 5.20.2, https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2023-4119b076ea.
