The upstream has been fixed for quite long,

  -> https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=364291
  -> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=533395#c13

Could you please take a look at it?

Hello Jochen, you plan to fix it?

Comment 3 Luya Tshimbalanga 2016-11-19 19:29:59 UTC

Hello, 
I am the new maintainer of Blender and notice this bug report. Sadly, the new version requires python 3.5.1. Given my lack of experience in EPEL would someone maintain this branch?

Comment 4 Vincent Danen 2016-11-21 16:20:59 UTC

This was fixed in Fedora 16 via:

fedora:16/blender-2.59-5.fc16

Surely that version doesn't require python 3.5.1 (pretty sure Fedora 16 did not have python3).  Can't you just update to that version?

I mean, this bug is over 4 years old now so maybe not fixing it is ok at this point given it's age?

I agree. Looking at the database, Blender is retired on both el5 and el6. However, epel7 branch is still active and needs a build.
With those considerations I can safely close this report.
