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 25 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!

Created attachment 1210157 [details] Spec file with a Python 3 subpackage May I ask to review carefully the patch? Note, I modified the spec file according to other python-XStatic-* javascript libraries that differ from the previous spec version of this one where is missing web-assets-filesystem dependence and the related stuff.
Thank you Jan; I *think*, xstatic-jquery-common can be replaced with js-jquery1. I will have to look at that. They both provide the same thing.
I went ahead and removed xstatic-jquery-common and replaced it with js-jquery1.
