Description Miro Hrončok 2025-06-18 12:39:51 UTC
Packages that required Python 3.13 in Fedora 41 or 42 and are gone (retired, removed subpackages) from Fedora 43 must be obsoleted, or else they have broken dependencies (e.g. on python(abi) = 3.13 or python3.13dist(...)) and block the upgrade path to Fedora 43.

We'll use this bug to track this.

We can do this in batches to unblock rawhide users but most importantly we need to do this:

- right after entering beta freeze (with a freeze exception)
- right after entering final freeze (with a freeze exception)

We need to do it after the freezes start to include packages removed right before it started.

We'll need to repeat this later for Fedora 44 milestones as well.
