I'm testing an update to pytest 7.2.0 and I've discovered a problem with this package. This package needs python3-setuptools to build but this dependency is not specified as a BuildRequires in its specfile. This fact didn't cause any trouble before because python3-pytest <7.2 depends on python3-setuptools so setuptools have been installed as a transitive dependency. pytest uses a different build backend now which means that when we update it to the latest version, this package will fail to build. The plan is to update pytest in ~2 weeks. If you want to, you can find the failed build in https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/lbalhar/pytest/
Vanessa, it just requires the addition of BuildRequires: python3-setuptools to the spec and rebuilding. Would you have time to do that in the next week or so?

Great, please let us know if there's anything we can do to help :)
Our plan is to ship the updated pytest during the next week. If you need any assistance from us, feel free to say so.
It looks like Vanessa did fix this in Rawhide.
