RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Miro Hrončok 2022-09-05 13:58:17 UTC 
Description of problem:
See https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/issues/1937

I'd like to backport the fix for this:
https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/pull/2580


Version-Release number of selected component: 53.0.0-10.el9


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to build the ipython package from rawhide on epel9.
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ipython/tree/9473367fe84dc2a9a3371219ebf405acd2a8ef35

Actual results:

    Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.6HcrAh (%build)

Expected results:
The build succeeds.

Additional info:

Technically, this might not be 100% backward compatible. Hence I'd like to reach an agreement before backporting it.

Comment 1 Lumír Balhar 2022-09-05 14:11:17 UTC 
Note that the failing function in IPython is some custom test checking that the package_data in setup.cfg is correctly defined. I think we don't need it and we can patch it out easily. https://github.com/ipython/ipython/blob/4396dd6207f5bb1c310ea897065c0c6e17d5f5b1/setupbase.py#L112-L122

But given that the fix is already implemented in setuptools for quite some time, backporting it is also a solution.

Comment 3 Miro Hrončok 2022-09-07 12:47:56 UTC 
Tested by running the added test in %check (careful: tests are disabled by default).
Comment 4 Miro Hrončok 2022-09-07 12:58:25 UTC 
Also verified that ipython from rawhide builds fine in epel9-next mock with this installed.
