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 gr-hpsdr'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 gr-hpsdr. If you need anything from us, or something is unclear, please mention it here. Thank you.

Please answer the above questions. If you don't, the package can be orphaned: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/F31_Mass_Python_2_Package_Removal#Information_on_Remaining_Packages If you need any information or help, or if you need some more time, please let us know.
The answers for gnuradio should be relevant the whole gr-* stack: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1737943
(In reply to Petr Viktorin from comment #5) > The answers for gnuradio should be relevant the whole gr-* stack: > https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1737943 Yes, this is correct. Maybe this one will also require porting, but let's handle it with the whole gnuradio stack.
