The Fedora builds of sympy do require mpmath: $ dnf repoquery --disablerepo='*' --enablerepo=rawhide --enablerepo=rawhide-source --requires python3-sympy Updating and loading repositories: Fedora - Rawhide - Source 100% | 31.7 KiB/s | 9.9 KiB | 00m00s Fedora - Rawhide - Developmental packages for the next Fedora release 100% | 77.4 KiB/s | 24.1 KiB | 00m00s Repositories loaded. /usr/bin/python3 python(abi) = 3.15 python3.15dist(mpmath) >= 1.1 The EPEL builds apparently removed that requirement on purpose: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/sympy/blob/epel10.3/f/0001-pyproject.toml.patch Perhaps @kkeithle can explain what is going on here? Not much to explain. The epel build is a bootstrap[1] build, and mpmath didn't appear to be required to build sympy or any of its dependents, including, but not limited to libarrow/liborc and ceph. At the time it was built nobody else was using it except me, so... The intention is/was to restore it for the non-bootstrap build. [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2368290 Alternatively, since I did build python-mpmath in epel10 some time back, it's possible I overlooked the need to rebuild sympy with it. FEDORA-EPEL-2026-abeff866b7 (sympy-1.14.0-3.el10_4) has been submitted as an update to Fedora EPEL 10.4. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2026-abeff866b7 FEDORA-EPEL-2026-abeff866b7 has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 10.4 testing repository. You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2026-abeff866b7 See also https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for more information on how to test updates. FEDORA-EPEL-2026-abeff866b7 (sympy-1.14.0-3.el10_4) has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 10.4 stable repository. If problem still persists, please make note of it in this bug report. |
Running sympy on EPEL 10 leads to the following error Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/sympy/__init__.py", line 23, in <module> import mpmath ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mpmath' During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/wrk/lehtola/libxc/scripts/sympy2c/compile.py", line 36, in <module> import libxc_codegen # noqa: E402 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/wrk/lehtola/libxc/python/libxc_codegen.py", line 25, in <module> import sympy as sp File "/usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/sympy/__init__.py", line 25, in <module> raise ImportError("SymPy now depends on mpmath as an external library. " From the looks of it, the bug also exists on Fedora branches. One should add Requires: python3-mpmath to all branches.
