Description Orion Poplawski 2020-12-13 18:58:25 UTC
Description of problem:

I'd like to see python-img2pdf in EPEL8.  Looks like we need to stick with 0.3.4 there due to the large amount of issues with trying to build pikepdf.  There also is no mupdf, but this is just needed for testing and does not break things if not present.

If you don't want to maintain it for epel, you can add me (FAS orion) as an admin to the package and I can request and maintain the epel8 branch.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.3.4

Comment 1 Georg Sauthoff 2020-12-13 21:18:34 UTC
Ok, I'll try to build it on EPEL8.

Regarding the dependencies - AFAICS, pdfrw also isn't available in EPEL8 nor in the main RHEL8/CentOS8 repository.

However, img2pdf also contains an internal PDF engine, i.e. it's even possible to use it without these dependencies - also with 0.4.0.

I couldn't find any serious limitations documented when using the internal engine.

See also: https://gitlab.mister-muffin.de/josch/img2pdf/issues/74

So I would just remove the pdfrw/pikepdf dependency on EPEL8 then.

Comment 2 Orion Poplawski 2020-12-13 21:37:00 UTC
Thanks.  I'm happy with whatever way you go.  When I tried to build 0.4.0 without pikepdf a test fails trying to import it, so it's going to require some patching.  And, yes, pdfrw seems to be a dead project so not worth trying to keep that.
