Description of problem: Cantera on epel8 requires an upgrade to v2.6.0 In order to do so, it needs to be built with python>3.6 scons is required for the build, but is not available as built against python3.12 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): python3.12-scons
SCons already exists in Cent0S 8; or no longer?
scons is present, however a python3.12 build is not when I try to build with python3-scons, I get the following error: """ scons: Reading SConscript files ... ERROR: Cantera must be built using Python 3.7 or higher; Python 3.6 is not supported. """ For Python packages, I have the following in my spec file: """ %global __python3 /usr/bin/python3.12 %global python3_pkgversion 3.12 ... BuildRequires: python%{python3_pkgversion}-Cython BuildRequires: python%{python3_pkgversion}-devel BuildRequires: python%{python3_pkgversion}-numpy BuildRequires: python%{python3_pkgversion}-pip BuildRequires: python%{python3_pkgversion}-pytest BuildRequires: python3-ruamel-yaml BuildRequires: python3-scons BuildRequires: python%{python3_pkgversion}-wheel """ (Both python3-ruamel-yaml and python3-scons don't have 3.12 versions available) It's entirely possible that the error is actually in my spec file, but I was reading the above as being indicative of scons being associated with python3.6 and needing to be replaced with a 3.12 build Thanks

Can you open a ticket in Red Hat’s JIRA?
Issue opened at https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-49963
Is it really needed build Cantera in a no longer supported CentOS8 system? I think we can focus on EPEL9+ packages. :)
