Dear package maintainer, this bugzilla is automated becasue the number of impacted packages it too high to go trough manually. It appears that your package uses the deprecated %py3_build and/or %py3_install macro. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/DeprecateSetuppyMacros for why the macros are deprecated. %py3_install expands to python setup.py install. This has been a deprecated command for 5 years and will likely stop working in Fedora 45. Please migrate to %pyproject_buildrequires + %pyproject_wheel + %pyproject_install macros instead. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/DeprecateSetuppyMacros#Migrating_to_%pyproject_macros for migration guide. See https://github.com/hroncok/pyprojectize/ for a tool that can help you automate the migration. Thank you. Let me know if you need help.

> I don't really understand this comment. It depend on what's written in the specfile. Sorry, I meant: upstream does not support the new tooling, so even with new macros, it's still `python setup.py` and setuptools under the hood. And since they still support 2.7, I don't know if they'll be willing to migrate any soon.
The new tooling is designed to support using setuptools under the hood. The point is that the setup.py file is not used to call "setup.py install" as a command anymore (not even under the hood). There is no need for upstream to migrate anywhere; everything is fine as it is here.
