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.
Instead of trying to fix the ulauncher v5 build for this, I'd like to propose we start packaging the v6 beta. @atim what do you think? All the devs and most Arch users have been daily driving v6 for well over a year, and there is a big push right now to get it out of beta, possibly by the end of 2025. I propose that re this ticket because v6 has migrated to pyproject.toml, and the %pyproject_* macros do not play well with ulauncher v5's setup.py configuration. The desktop file is installed in the wrong place, named the wrong thing, and has the wrong Exec path. It seems like there is some issue with how the distutils is detecting "data_path", since even after I manually fix the desktop file, it won't launch for a similar reason: ``` Aug 31 17:33:55 arafel env[218372]: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~^^ Aug 31 17:33:55 arafel env[218372]: File "/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/ulauncher/config.py", line 60, in get_data_path Aug 31 17:33:55 arafel env[218372]: raise ProjectPathNotFoundError(abs_data_path) Aug 31 17:33:55 arafel env[218372]: ulauncher.config.ProjectPathNotFoundError: /ulauncher-5.15.7.data/data/share/ulauncher ``` This `/ulauncher-5.15.7.data/...` was the same kind of path issue that it put into the desktop file. If there is agreement on making the move to v6 now, I can migrate the copr I've already been building periodically.
