Description Orion Poplawski 2018-01-31 23:08:19 UTC
Description of problem:

pyscard in EPEL7 is at 1.6.16-2.el7.  Upstream is at 1.9.6.  I'd like to get python3 support for pyscard into EPEL7, but 1.6.16 does not support python3 (though i haven't tried 2to3).  Options seem to be:

* Update to 1.9.6 - this my break too many things, although it doesn't look like any other EPEL packages depend on pyscard at least.
* Submit a new python3-pyscard package

Thoughts?

Ping - Seth are you still around?

Comment 2 Seth Jennings 2018-11-16 19:34:27 UTC
Wow, sorry.  This completely fell off my radar.

Yes, the python2 packages are going away so we need to bump the version to support python3.

I can try to find time soon.  If you feel so inclined, please feel free to take it on.

I've filed https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/pyscard/pull-request/1

What are your thoughts on updating EPEL7 from 1.6.16 to 1.9.7?

Comment 4 Seth Jennings 2018-11-16 22:24:15 UTC
I merged your PR, thanks a bunch!

I'm not usually a fan of bumping a package in a big way in a GAed release, but if you could test it, I'd could be ok with it. I don't use it in EPEL.

Comment 5 Orion Poplawski 2018-11-16 23:12:01 UTC
Looking through the changelog and a quick diff leads me to think there is very little api difference if any between the two versions.  With no other dependencies on pyscard in EPEL, I think it's okay to update it.  I'll do that now.
