pygame fails to build with Python 3.11.0a2.

src_c/pypm.c:209:12: fatal error: longintrepr.h: No such file or directory
  209 |   #include "longintrepr.h"
      |            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

The non-limited API files cellobject.h, classobject.h, context.h, funcobject.h, genobject.h and longintrepr.h have been moved to the Include/cpython directory. Moreover, the eval.h header file was removed. These files must not be included directly, as they are already included in Python.h: Include Files. If they have been included directly, consider including Python.h instead. (Contributed by Victor Stinner in bpo-35134.)

For the build logs, see:
https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/@python/python3.11/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/02990382-pygame/

For all our attempts to build pygame with Python 3.11, see:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.11/package/pygame/

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 3.11:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.11/

Let us know here if you have any questions.

Python 3.11 is planned to be included in Fedora 37. To make that update smoother, we're building Fedora packages with all pre-releases of Python 3.11.
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.

Comment 1 Petr Viktorin (pviktori) 2021-12-01 12:54:49 UTC
This is from pre-built Cython sources; these should be removed in %prep with e.g.

    rm $(grep -rl '/\* Generated by Cython')

These files will then be rebuilt from source, with a updated version of Cython.
See: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Python/#_using_cython
