Upstream, this software supports Python 3. Please provide a Python 3 package for Fedora. According to the Python packaging guidelines [0], software must be packaged for Python 3 if upstream supports it. The guidelines give detailed information on how to do this, and even provide an example spec file [1]. The current best practice is to provide subpackages for the two Python versions (called "Common SRPM" in the guidelines). Alternatively, if nothing depends on your Python2 package, you can just switch to Python 3 entirely. It's OK to do this in Rawhide only, however, it would be greatly appreciated if you could push it to Fedora 24 as well. If you need more instructions, a guide for porting Python-based RPMs is available at [2]. If anything is unclear, or if you need any kind of assistance with the porting, you can ask on IRC (#fedora-python on Freenode), or reply here. We'll be happy to help!

Hello Conrad, do you need any help adding Python 3 support to the RPM?
Created attachment 1182750 [details] add Python 3 & update version Hi Conrad, here is the change needed to add Python 3 support and update the version. Could you please review it and do the update? Koji scratch build: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=14978583 Also tested in Mock (fedora-23-x86_64, fedora-24-x86_64, fedora-rawhide-x86_64, fedora-rawhide-i386).
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 25 development cycle. Changing version to '25'.
Hello Dominika. I've found some bugs in your patch: - You should use %{name} and %{version} in source URL. - This package is application with something in %{_bindir} so you should to rename this file after build in one version of Python and then make symlinks. - You probably have typo in summary in subpackages - single 'm' in macro name. Have a nice day.
Created attachment 1188584 [details] add Python 3 & update version Hi Lumír, there is a new patch. Koji scratch build: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=15172297
Patch looks good to me now. Thank you.
Conrad, do you mind if I push this? If you don't reply in a week, I assume it's OK.
