Description Toshio Ernie Kuratomi 2011-12-20 21:16:08 UTC

Description of problem:

I read some messages from upstream that implied that paste would not run on python3 so I took a look at why our package build was completing.  Looks like we weren't enabling the unittests.

If unittests are enabled, there are several failures in the python2 modules (several of which look genuine as opposed to being network tests from within the buildsystem) and the python3 module has a large number of failures:
  Ran 60 tests in 0.554s
  FAILED (errors=45)

Additional info:

Here's a koji scratch build, the build.log will show the buildfailures:

I've also checked in a new spec file and built for rawhide that has the skeleton for enabling the unittests.  Anytime you want to work on it, you'll just need to modify the %check section to run nosetest3.2 and to remove excludes from the nosetests invokations.

Comment 1 Toshio Ernie Kuratomi 2011-12-20 21:21:08 UTC

Note: For the python3 failures, we can either fix these and submit them or we can drop the python3 subpackage (unfortunately, only in rawhide).

According to repoquery, removing the python3-paste module will impact python3-beaker which will impact python3-mako and python3-mako0.4

Comment 2 Toshio Ernie Kuratomi 2011-12-22 00:31:40 UTC

New python-paste built that passes all the expected unittests for the python2 module.

So it's just the python3 modules as mentioned in this bug that's broken now.

Comment 3 Toshio Ernie Kuratomi 2012-01-06 05:49:54 UTC

If someone is willing to make the decision to remove python3 support, I'll go ahead and build a package without it.

If someone would like to fix python3 support, ping the  bug to let me know.  If we're going to disable python3 support, I'd like to be able to do that before alpha.

Comment 4 Toshio Ernie Kuratomi 2012-01-23 19:03:59 UTC

Talked with lmacken at FUDCon.  We chose to disable the python3 build.

I've disabled the python3 subpackage and built a new package for rawhide.
