Fedora 42 will update Tcl/Tk to version 9.0. It seems your package uses Tcl or Tk as a dependency. Please check that your package builds and works correctly with Tcl/Tk 9.0. The effort is tracked in the bug 2337584, there is system wide change proposal [1]. I also tried to rebuild the direct dependencies in Copr [2]. TL/DR: - there is side tag "f42-build-side-103615" - Tcl/Tk was bumped to version 9.0 in the side tag - there are compat packages tcl8/tk8 in the side tag for backward compatibility - if your package needs fixing, please fix it to build with the Tcl/Tk 9.0 or switch it to the compat tcl8/tk8 - build your package into the side tag "f42-build-side-103615" (if rebuild is not needed, e.g. the package just calls the Tcl shell and works with any Tcl version, ignore this step) - close this bug Full version: If your package works correctly and doesn't require rebuild, please close this bug as rawhide. If your package needs rebuild and correctly builds with the Tcl/Tk 9.0, please rebuild it with the side-tag "f42-build-side-103615": $ fedpkg build --target=f42-build-side-103615 Optionally, you can regenerate the repo for others to be able to build with your package in the side-tag (example YOUR_PKG_NVR="brltty-6.7-3"): $ koji wait-repo --build=$YOUR_PKG_NVR.fc42 f42-build-side-103615 --request Close this bug as rawhide. If your package doesn't build with the Tcl/Tk 9.0, please fix/port it. There is a Tcl/Tk 9.0 porting guide [3]. Then build it with the side-tag "f42-build-side-103615": $ fedpkg build --target=f42-build-side-103615 Optionally, you can regenerate the repo for others to be able to build with your package in the side-tag, (example YOUR_PKG_NVR="brltty-6.7-3"): $ koji wait-repo --build=$YOUR_PKG_NVR.fc42 f42-build-side-103615 --request Close this bug as rawhide. If your package cannot be ported or it's unrealistic to do it in the short time, please switch to the compat Tcl/Tk 8 packages. In the spec file change the BuildRequires from the "tcl-devel"/"tk-devel" to "tcl8-devel"/"tk8-devel". If your package needs explicit "Requires: tcl", you can use "Requires: tcl8". Then build your package with the side-tag "f42-build-side-103615": $ fedpkg build --target=f42-build-side-103615 Optionally, you can regenerate the repo for others to be able to build with your package in the side-tag, (example YOUR_PKG_NVR="brltty-6.7-3"): $ koji wait-repo --build=$YOUR_PKG_NVR.fc42 f42-build-side-103615 --request Close this bug as rawhide. If you update your package after resolving this bug (and before 2025-02-04), please build to the side-tag. Components which bugzillas won't be resolved till 2025-01-31 will be switched to the compat tcl8/tk8 packages by proven packager and rebuilt into the side-tag. Then at the turning point (2025-02-03) the side-tag will be pushed by me as an Bodhi update. Thanks for your cooperation.

Update: There is a better way how to handle switch to compat packages, instead of build requiring tcl8-devel/tk8-devel, the following is better and backward compatible approach: BuildRequires: tcl-devel < 9 BuildRequires: tk-devel < 9 The correct provides are already included in the tcl8/tk8 packages. And in a such way the package needn't be built into the side tag. For updates please check the tracking bug 2337584.
Update (auto comment): > BuildRequires: tcl-devel < 9 > BuildRequires: tk-devel < 9 There is epoch, so the correct variant is: BuildRequires: tcl-devel < 1:9 BuildRequires: tk-devel < 1:9 Sorry for confusion.
Update (auto comment): Tcl/Tk 9.0 update was pushed as fedora 42 update together with the tcl8/tk8 compat packages. If your package is Tcl/Tk 9.0 compatible, build it with the tcl-devel or tk-devel build requirements (no side tag build now). If your package isn't Tcl/Tk 9.0 compatible, the implicit dependencies should be automatically satisfied now by the compat tcl8/tk8 packages, but the package may later fail to build (FTBFS). In such case, change the build requirement to tcl8-devel or tk8-devel. It turned out that some packages may also require patching to use the tclsh8/wish8 instead of the tclsh/wish. This should be trivial change. If you already handled it, thank you and please ignore this message.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 42 development cycle. Changing version to 42.
Dear Maintainer, your package has an open Fails To Build From Source bug for Fedora 42. Action is required from you. If you can fix your package to build, perform a build in koji, and either create an update in bodhi, or close this bug without creating an update, if updating is not appropriate [1]. If you are working on a fix, set the status to ASSIGNED to acknowledge this. If you have already fixed this issue, please close this Bugzilla report. Following the policy for such packages [2], your package will be orphaned if this bug remains in NEW state more than 8 weeks (not sooner than 2025-03-11). A week before the mass branching of Fedora 43 according to the schedule [3], any packages not successfully rebuilt at least on Fedora 41 will be retired regardless of the status of this bug.

Switched to Tcl/Tk 8.6 until resolved upstream.
Upstream notified about the problem.
