Description Miro Hrončok 2024-10-18 10:13:46 UTC

Dear package maintainer,

this bugzilla is automated becasue the number of impacted packages it too high to go trough manually.

It appears that your package failed to build with setuptools 74.1.3 and wheel 0.44 in

  https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/churchyard/setuptools-74/package/python-rmtest/

While it succeeded with setuptools 69.2.0 and wheel 0.43 in

  https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/churchyard/setuptools-control/package/python-rmtest/

This usually means this package fails to build with setuptools 74+

We plan to update setuptools to version 74 or newer in Fedora 42. This is an approved Fedora 42 Change:

  https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Setuptools_74+



Please analyze the failure and fix it in rawhide. Thanks.


You can use the builds from the churchyard/setuptools-74 copr for local testing.

  mock -r fedora-rawhide-x86_64 --addrepo 'https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/churchyard/setuptools-74/fedora-rawhide-$basearch/'


One of the most common problems is that the setup.py test command cannot be used. If that is the case here, run the tests in %check differently, e.g. via %pytest, %tox, %{python3} -m unittest, etc.


If you need help, reach out to me in this bugzilla.

Comment 1 Miro Hrončok 2024-10-29 10:58:39 UTC

I plan to update setuptools to 74.x in rawhide this week.

At that point, this package will fail to build from source if not fixed.

Comment 2 Miro Hrončok 2024-11-14 11:57:39 UTC

As per https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Fails_to_build_from_source_Fails_to_install/ I am now asking the maintainer to respond.

Comment 3 Nathan Scott 2024-11-14 23:07:13 UTC

I'm on extended PTO until next year and unable to assist.

Comment 4 Miro Hrončok 2024-12-05 14:13:12 UTC

This is a bulk response.

In line with step 4 from https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Fails_to_build_from_source_Fails_to_install/#_package_removal_for_long_standing_ftbfs_and_fti_bugs I am asking for a response.

Thanks.

A minimalist patch to make the python-rmtest compile-able with setup-tools-74 : https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-rmtest/pull-request/2
