Description Karsten Hopp 2007-04-20 16:44:44 UTC
Description of problem:
gonvert seems to be the only FE package which still installs anything in
/usr/lib/python-2.4 
As we're not shipping python-2.4 in F7/Rawhide, this should be changed to
/usr/lib/python-2.5


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gonvert-0.2.15-4.fc7

Ping.  (This has been open for 2 months without a reply or fix.)

I noticed this problem today when I installed gonvert.  I took a look at the
spec file to see about fixing it.  In the process, I updated gonvert to the
latest upstream version, 0.2.19, and made some other changes to the package. 
See http://fedorapeople.org/~tmz/gonvert/ for a patch to the spec file as well
as mock builds for F-7 and devel.

Hopefully some of these changes will be useful.  At the least, the subject of
this bug should be fixed.  It results in a dangling
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/share/gonvert/ directory when the package is
removed or upgraded.  I don't see any reason why the glade file should be
installed in /usr/lib/python2.x at all, whether 2.4 or 2.5.

Ping.  Please acknowledge Paul.  This has been open for months.  I sent a
private mail to you 2 weeks ago asking about this, also with no reply.  I
believe the AWOL Maintainers policy[1] is kicking in here.
