Python 2.7 will reach end-of-life in January 2020, over 9 years after it was released. This falls within the Fedora 31 lifetime. Packages that depend on Python 2 are being switched to Python 3 or removed from Fedora: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/F31_Mass_Python_2_Package_Removal#Information_on_Remaining_Packages Python 2 will be retired in Fedora 32: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/RetirePython2 To help planning, we'd like to know the plans for python-tftpy's future. Specifically: - What is the reason for the Python2 dependency? (Is it software written in Python, or does it just provide Python bindings, or use Python in the build system or test runner?) - What are the upstream/community plans/timelines regarding Python 3? - What is the guidance for porting to Python 3? (Assuming that there is someone who generally knows how to port to Python 3, but doesn't know anything about the particular package, what are the next steps to take?) This bug is filed semi-automatically, and might not have all the context specific to python-tftpy. If you need anything from us, or something is unclear, please mention it here. Thank you.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 31 development cycle. Changing version to '31'.

Upstream tftpy-0.8.0 has added support for Python 3.x, so I updated the Fedora packages to 0.8.0 and built F31 and F32 packages for both python2 and python3: F31: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=37007541 F32: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=37006760 I can drop the python2-tftpy package for F32.
python2-ftpy is a leaf (nothing depends on it) so, please, remove it from Fedora rawhide. Thank you!
I updated the spec to only build python3-tftpy for rawhide. Fresh builds: F31: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1355740 F32: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1355742
The newest builds look good to me. Thank you!
