zbar fails to build with Python 3.9.0a2. python/enum.c: In function 'enumitem_print': python/enum.c:84:31: error: 'struct _typeobject' has no member named 'tp_print' 84 | return(self->name->ob_type->tp_print(self->name, fp, flags)); | ^~ python/enum.c: At top level: python/enum.c:118:6: error: 'PyTypeObject' {aka 'struct _typeobject'} has no member named 'tp_print' 118 | .tp_print = (printfunc)enumitem_print, | ^~~~~~~~ python/enum.c:118:23: warning: initialization of 'PyObject * (*)(PyObject *, PyObject *)' {aka 'struct _object * (*)(struct _object *, struct _object *)'} from 'long int' makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Wint-conversion] 118 | .tp_print = (printfunc)enumitem_print, | ^ python/enum.c:118:23: note: (near initialization for 'zbarEnumItem_Type.tp_getattro') This is confusing to me, because I thought this was already changed in Python 3.9. Anyway see https://docs.python.org/3.9/c-api/typeobj.html#c.PyTypeObject.tp_vectorcall_offset tp_print is indeed no more. For the build logs, see: https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/@python/python3.9/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/01147646-zbar/ For all our attempts to build zbar with Python 3.9, see: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.9/package/zbar/ Testing and mass rebuild of packages is happening in copr. You can follow these instructions to test locally in mock if your package builds with Python 3.9: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.9/ Let us know here if you have any questions. Python 3.9 will be included in Fedora 33. To make that update smoother, we're building Fedora packages with early pre-releases of Python 3.9. A build failure prevents us from testing all dependent packages (transitive [Build]Requires), so it's important for us to get it fixed soon. We'd appreciate help from the people who know this package best, but if you don't want to work on this now, let us know so we can try to work around it on our side.
> because I thought this was already changed in Python 3.9 I meant 3.8.
tp_print has been removed from Python 3.9. I opened https://bugs.python.org/issue39361 to document the removal. This code should be made Python 2 only using #ifdef, tp_print is unused since Python 3.0. static int enumitem_print (zbarEnumItem *self, FILE *fp, int flags) { return(self->name->ob_type->tp_print(self->name, fp, flags)); } But also: .tp_print = (printfunc)enumitem_print, https://sourceforge.net/p/zbar/code/ci/default/tree/python/enum.c
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 32 development cycle. Changing version to 32.
Mauro, could you please have look and report this upstream if needed? Thanks.
This comment is mass posted to all bugs blocking the Python 3.9 tracker, sorry if it is not 100 % relevant. When in doubt, please ask. The Python 3.9 rebuild is in progress in a Koji side tag. If you fix this bug, please don't rebuild the package in regular rawhide, but do it in the side tag with: $ fedpkg build --target=f33-python The rebuild is progressing slowly and it is possible this package won't have all the required build dependencies yet. If that's the case, please just leave the fix committed and pushed and we will eventually rebuild it for you. You are not asked to go and try rebuild all the missing dependencies yourself. If you know there is a bootstrap loop in the dependencies, let me know and we can untangle it together. If you want to test your fix or reproduce the failure, you can still use the Copr repo mentioned in the initial comment of this bug: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.9/
Python 3.9 update: The f33-python side tag is currently being merged. New builds in f33-python are no longer possible, but python3 is not yet updated to Python 3.9 in rawhide. You can check when Python is Python 3.9 with: $ koji wait-repo f33-build --build python3.9-3.9.0~b1-3.fc3 And build the packages normally after that.

Hello, This is the second reminder (step 4 from https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Fails_to_build_from_source_Fails_to_install/#_package_removal_for_long_standing_ftbfs_and_fti_bugs). If you know about this problem and are planning on fixing it, please acknowledge so by setting the bug status to ASSIGNED. If you don't have time to maintain this package, consider orphaning it, so maintainers of dependent packages realize the problem.
This package has changed maintainer in the Fedora. Reassigning to the new maintainer of this component.
This package has been orphaned. You can pick it up at https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/zbar by clicking button "Take". If nobody picks it up, it will be retired and removed from a distribution.
Patched, sent upstream.
