Description Tomáš Hrnčiar 2022-01-11 13:52:29 UTC
libgpuarray fails to build with Python 3.11.0a3.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/builddir/build/BUILD/libgpuarray-0.7.6/setup.py", line 144, in <module>
    version_data = versioneer.get_versions()
                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  File "/builddir/build/BUILD/libgpuarray-0.7.6/versioneer.py", line 1412, in get_versions
    cfg = get_config_from_root(root)
          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  File "/builddir/build/BUILD/libgpuarray-0.7.6/versioneer.py", line 342, in get_config_from_root
    parser = configparser.SafeConfigParser()
             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: module 'configparser' has no attribute 'SafeConfigParser'. Did you mean: 'RawConfigParser'?

https://docs.python.org/3.11/whatsnew/3.11.html

This should be solved by updating versioneer.py to the latest version.

For the build logs, see:
https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/@python/python3.11/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/03139205-libgpuarray/

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

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 Jerry James 2022-01-11 17:17:38 UTC
This is yet another old version of versioneer.py.  I filed an upstream bug asking for an update (https://github.com/Theano/libgpuarray/issues/593) and added a patch in the meantime.  I did a successful mock build using the python 3.11 COPR.  The updated package has been built in Rawhide.
