Description Miro Hrončok 2025-08-18 10:12:31 UTC
Dear package maintainer,

Due to reasons described in https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/XO5QGOXBWHFG7AOGDQBG23AQDS2MDTWI/ a rebuild of babeltrace was needed in Fedora 43 and 44.

During the mass rebuild the package built successfully, but now appears to be stuck on gating in Bodhi.

https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/?packages=babeltrace

Please, determine the reason for this yourself and unstuck the Bodhi updates, ideally before the Fedora 43 Beta freeze (2025-08-26).

Thank you. Let me know if you need help.

Comment 1 Miro Hrončok 2025-08-26 11:08:43 UTC
Hello. This is a bulk comment.

This package still needs to be rebuilt and/or shipped with Python 3.14.0rc2+ bytecode in Fedora 43.

The Beta Freeze of Fedora 43 is scheduled to start today. Please prioritize this bugzilla accordingly.

Thanks.

Hi,

I didn't immediately click on the fact that this is for babeltrace 1.5, not babeltrace2.

babeltrace 1.5 is no longer supported upstream. I think it would be okay to drop babeltrace 1.5 from Fedora.

A number of other projects seem to be configure to have dependencies on libbabeltrace though, and I think it's a bit much to ask their maintainers to reconfigure the builds without that support on such short notice:

```
$ fedora-repoquery rawhide --whatrequires libbabeltrace
babeltrace-1.5.11-12.fc43.x86_64 (fedora-rawhide)
ceph-common-19.2.3-8.fc44.x86_64 (fedora-rawhide)
gdb-headless-16.3-5.fc44.x86_64 (fedora-rawhide)
insight-13.0.50.20220502-25.fc44.x86_64 (fedora-rawhide)
libbabeltrace-devel-1.5.11-12.fc43.i686 (fedora-rawhide)
libbabeltrace-devel-1.5.11-12.fc43.x86_64 (fedora-rawhide)
perf-6.17.0-0.rc2.250821g068a56e56fa8.27.fc44.x86_64 (fedora-rawhide)
python3-babeltrace-1.5.11-12.fc43.x86_64 (fedora-rawhide)
python3-perf-6.17.0-0.rc2.250821g068a56e56fa8.27.fc44.x86_64 (fedora-rawhide)
```

No packages seem to depend on python3-babeltrace, so it may be possible to simply drop that part of the package if it's the only blocker.

```
$ fedora-repoquery rawhide --whatrequires python3-babeltrace
```

I'll have a look at the build failure and see if it's something that can be addressed easily.

@mjeanson thoughts?

thanks,
kienan

Note that there is no build failure; the updates are stuck on gating.

I have no idea how is your gating configured, if this is a real issue, or a broken test.

neither do I, but I'm looking into it
