Description Miro Hrončok 2025-06-20 09:49:49 UTC 
When Python 3.13+ is added to EL 10, virtualenv in EPEL 10 currently uses wheels from /usr/share/python3-wheels/ instead of /usr/share/python3.13-wheels/

This works nicely, as the wheels appear to be "good enough" for Python 3.13. This might no longer be true for Python 3.14, 3.15...

We need to forwardport:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-virtualenv/c/6e2063b0143808db490515a8a8726f5dc3af50f8?branch=epel9


We need to add:

    Requires:       (python3.13-pip-wheel if python3.13)
    Requires:       (python3.13-setuptools-wheel if python3.13)

And since we don't have python3.13-wheel-wheel we need to either backport https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-virtualenv/pull-request/133 (but adjust the Python version this applies to to 3.13+) or if that fails, package python3.13-wheel-wheel into EPEL 10 and add a requirement for that as well.
