Description

Update: There is a better way how to handle switch to compat packages, instead of build requiring tcl8-devel/tk8-devel, the following is better and backward compatible approach: BuildRequires: tcl-devel < 9 BuildRequires: tk-devel < 9 The correct provides are already included in the tcl8/tk8 packages. And in a such way the package needn't be built into the side tag. For updates please check the tracking bug 2337584. Update (auto comment):
> BuildRequires: tcl-devel < 9
> BuildRequires: tk-devel < 9
There is epoch, so the correct variant is:
BuildRequires: tcl-devel < 1:9
BuildRequires: tk-devel < 1:9
Sorry for confusion.
Update (auto comment): Tcl/Tk 9.0 update was pushed as fedora 42 update together with the tcl8/tk8 compat packages. If your package is Tcl/Tk 9.0 compatible, build it with the tcl-devel or tk-devel build requirements (no side tag build now). If your package isn't Tcl/Tk 9.0 compatible, the implicit dependencies should be automatically satisfied now by the compat tcl8/tk8 packages, but the package may later fail to build (FTBFS). In such case, change the build requirement to tcl8-devel or tk8-devel. It turned out that some packages may also require patching to use the tclsh8/wish8 instead of the tclsh/wish. This should be trivial change. If you already handled it, thank you and please ignore this message. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 42 development cycle. Changing version to 42. This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 42 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 42 on 2026-05-13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a 'version' of '42'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' to a later Fedora Linux version. Note that the version field may be hidden. Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see it. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora Linux 42 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version prior to this bug being closed. |
