Please branch and build python-tabulate in epel9.
If you’d like to see a Fedora package in EPEL that is not yours, follow the EPEL package request steps. https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/epel/epel-package-request/ Especially as recommended, did you send an email to epel-devel?
Hello, I believe this bugzilla generally follows the listed process there. The recommendation is to wait for a while before reaching out to epel-devel to give the current maintainer time to review the request and see if they have the time/interest to maintain this in EPEL9. Is there a piece of the process I overlooked?
My response because as current maintainer I did exactly branches for epel7 and epel8 but currently no interest in epel9.
I would potentially be willing to handle EPEL9 if added as an additional EPEL co-maintainer, and if the dependencies were ready. I wouldn’t want to patch out the pandas tests, though, and right now there’s a significant dependency chain (tabulate → pandas → matplotlib → [pikepdf, pillow-tk, pytest-rerunfailures, pytest-xdist, …]) that isn’t ready yet.
I put in a PR that excludes numpy/pandas from EPEL 9 and the tests seem to run fine without the long dependency chain. Some tests are skipped, but not too many. Here's the PR: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-tabulate/pull-request/3 This package is in the azure-cli > python-knack > tabulate dependency chain. I'm happy to help maintain this package if the maintainers find that helpful! My FAS username is mhayden. ⛅
Since the PR has been up for about a week without attracting any comments, I’m using my neuro-sig group membership to move forward with the EPEL9 branch: https://pagure.io/releng/fedora-scm-requests/issue/44129 I’m happy to help take care of that branch going forward, and as mhayden mentioned, he’s happy to be added as an EPEL co-maintainer too.
