meson fails to build with Python 3.9.0a2 with tests enabled. Looking at the logs, I don't even know how to find the failure :( Looks like some qt tests fail. For the build logs, see: https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/@python/python3.9/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/01173456-meson/ For all our attempts to build meson with Python 3.9, see: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.9/package/meson/ 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 if this package is required a lot, 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.
I haven’t had the time to fully get the tests running. Neal Gompa dropped a PR that simply reverts the old spec material without fixing anything, so go figure. The only solution right now is to not build with tests.
That's what we are doing anyway, because we need to build meson without tests first to build some of the test dependencies of meson.
I’ll spend the day trying to fix things. A patch I needed was merged just today, so the timing is on our side.
Thanks. Note that given the fact that we actually need to build meson w/out test first, this is not really blocking any of the dependent packages as said in the automated report. No need to rush things.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 32 development cycle. Changing version to 32.
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.
The following builds were made after this report was opened: meson-0.53.1-1.fc33 meson-0.53.2-1.git88e40c7.fc33 meson-0.54.0-1.fc33 meson-0.54.1-1.fc33 meson-0.54.2-1.fc33 meson-0.54.2-2.fc33 meson-0.54.2-3.fc33 meson-0.54.3-1.fc33 meson-0.54.3-2.fc33 meson-0.55.0-1.fc33 meson-0.55.0-2.fc33 meson-0.55.0~rc1-1.fc33 meson-0.55.0~rc2-1.fc33
All of them without tests thou, sorry for the noise.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 33 development cycle. Changing version to 33.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 33 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 33 on 2021-11-30. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '33'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 33 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 33 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2021-11-30. Fedora 33 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
