My preference is against abbreviations and continuations:
- %global desc %{expand: \
- %description
- %{desc}
+ %global _description %{expand:
+ %description %_description
This will actually remove an unneeded empty line at the beginning of Description.

Either add a comma after "extensible", or remove the one before "but". Having
one but not the other is wrong, because it makes encourages the reader to parse
"but extensible interface" as subordinate sentence.

-1 is strange. It is the same as 255 in this context, and usually means "killed by a signal". 1 would be better.
But pushd already returns an error, so '|| exit ...' should not be necessary at all.
And in fact, pushd is also unecessary:

make -C docs SPHINXBUILD=sphinx-build-3 html

> BuildRequires:  tex(amsmath.sty)

...

That's painful. Hopefully this can be replaced by DynamicBuildrequires in the near future.

+ package name is OK
+ license is acceptable for Fedora (MIT)
+ license is specified correctly
+ builds and installs OK
+ BR/R/P look OK (if a bit tedious)
+ %python_provide macro is present
+ fedora-review and rpmlint are happy

Package is APPROVED.

Will the subpackage descriptions then similarly become:

%description -n python3-%{pypi_name} %_description

?

Tweaked. (It's upstream's description)

Upstream does it like this, so I'd like to leave it as it is:

Of course! Updated. Still got a pushd in there for the fixes, though.

I had a look at the DynamicBuildRequires page, but I'm not clear how it would pick up all of these tbh. One has to go through the code and figure them out.

Thanks very much! Requesting repository now!

Yep.

That was just a suggestion. I should have said that. nose is dead, and 
pytest generally gives better reports, so if both work equally well, it's
often better to switch even if upstream has different preferences. But
nosetests is and will be in Fedora of course.

Yeah, that's not really possible yet. rpm-4.15 only landed in rawhide,
and we're only really starting to play with it.
In this case there's little hope for an automated tool, but if you
wrote some script to generate the BRs, e.g. by grepping the sources,
the BR generator would have the advantage that it would be able to
always run after %prep, so when upstream inevitably adds new imports,
less packaging work would be required.
