Description of problem: The 'pyserial' package supplies the following in /usr/bin: /usr/bin/miniterm-2.7.py -> /usr/bin/miniterm.py-2 /usr/bin/miniterm-2.py /usr/bin/miniterm.py There is no "/usr/bin/miniterm.py-2" and it looks like that this is a typo and /usr/bin/miniterm-2.py was really intendend. Or if this symlink is not really needed then maybe it should not be there at all? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pyserial-3.1.1-1.fc25
This message is a reminder that Fedora 25 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 25. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '25'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 25 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Exactly the same typo is present in pyserial-3.1.1-4.fc27

With Fedora 29 we have two bugs for a price of one as pyserial-3.1.1-10.fc29 comes with two binary packages: python2-pyserial-3.1.1-10.fc29 and python3-pyserial-3.1.1-10.fc29. The first binary package has in /usr/bin a deal link miniterm-2.7.py -> /usr/bin/miniterm.py-2 while providing only miniterm-2.py and miniterm.py. The other one has miniterm-3.7.py -> /usr/bin/miniterm.py-3 with only miniterm-3.py present.

The original bug, as reported on 2017-02-11, was in the meantime fixed without recording this detail in bugzilla. OTOH a subpackage python3-pyserial aquired this bug again. Looking at python3-pyserial-3.4-3.fc31 I see in /usr/bin/: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Nov 27 14:22 miniterm-3.7.py -> /usr/bin/miniterm.py-3 Only there is no miniterm.py-3. One can find /usr/bin/miniterm-3.py instead.
(In reply to Michal Jaegermann from comment #7) > The original bug, as reported on 2017-02-11, was in the meantime fixed Checking more carefuly I am mistaken that this was fixed for python2-pyserial. miniterm-2.7.py is still a link to a non-existent /usr/bin/miniterm.py-2 while in /usr/bin there are two identical copies called miniterm.py and miniterm-2.py and also miniterm-3.py which differs from two others only on a "bang line".
Miro (churchyard) actually fixed this in the spec last month (in this commit[1]), but only on the master (rawhide) branch. So I guess it'll be fixed in F32, if nothing else. [1]: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/pyserial/c/5b33d1b3cc67c198d65274c451297b0d80e040d1
