Description Steve Traylen 2010-12-13 19:37:46 UTC
Hi, 
I'd like to realize a python26-Django package in EPEL5.

This is currently not possible due to missing dependencies but
I'll come back to try and provide a patch once they are resolved.

Comment 1 Steve Milner 2011-01-10 15:47:43 UTC
Hey Steve,

EPEL5 uses Python2.5 if I remember correctly. I'm not sure that a 2.6 specific package would be OK within EPEL5 itself. Are you looking to get a later version of Django in EPEL5 or do you need Python2.6 specifically?

Comment 2 Steve Traylen 2011-01-10 15:53:17 UTC
RHEL5 contains python2.4

EPEL5 contains a parallel installable python26 package. 

Yes I want Django as python26-Django package.

There are now plenty of python26-* packages in EPEL5

python26.x86_64                                                     2.6.5-5.el5                                         installed

 and it is acceptable to add  Django.... of course once all the dependencies are in place.
 Once they are I will  return to this bug and try to provide a python26-Django .spec file suitable for EPEL5.



Steve.

Comment 3 Steve Milner 2011-01-11 15:12:22 UTC
OK, that works. Thank you very much Steve!

Comment 4 Michel Lind 2011-09-10 21:31:31 UTC
Another issue on EPEL5 is that Django 1.1.x is no longer supported by upstream, and given that they just issued security updates for 1.2.x and 1.3.x, I wonder if it's time to get the EPEL5 package in sync with EPEL6.

Steve (Milner), thoughts?

Comment 5 Michel Lind 2011-09-10 22:22:56 UTC
note: there is no need to depend on python26-sphinx; sphinx is invoked as a binary, so you can just use python-sphinx10 instead.

Comment 6 jflowers 2012-12-03 07:49:46 UTC
Is there any update on this issue, or an expected completion date.

Thank you

Comment 7 Steve Traylen 2014-06-03 12:51:02 UTC
EPEL 5 only.
