Description Miro Hrončok 2020-03-26 19:13:27 UTC
python-logbook fails to build with Python 3.9.0a5.

running build_ext
building 'logbook._speedups' extension
creating build/temp.linux-x86_64-3.9
creating build/temp.linux-x86_64-3.9/logbook
gcc ... -fPIC -I/usr/include/python3.9 -c logbook/_speedups.c -o build/temp.linux-x86_64-3.9/logbook/_speedups.o
error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'gcc'

I wonder how was this previously built successfully on rawhide without gcc.


For the build logs, see:
https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/@python/python3.9/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/01321093-python-logbook/

For all our attempts to build python-logbook with Python 3.9, see:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.9/package/python-logbook/

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'm guessing one of it's BRs BRed it and then didn't.

Or maybe it was gnomes. You never know.

Anyway, fixed.

Comment 2 Miro Hrončok 2020-03-26 21:22:18 UTC
I've checked the previous root.logs. gcc was not present. So I guess gnomes.



Anyway, the extension module is still not built:

running build_ext
***************************************************************************
WARNING: The C extension could not be compiled, speedups are not enabled.
Plain-Python build succeeded.
***************************************************************************


I guess that missing gcc was previously considered such failure and now it isn't, but there is another failure.

Feel free to investigate if you want the speedups, or not.

Thanks for the fix.

Odd. It's failing because a source file is missing. Oh well. Thanks!
