Description of problem: I attempted a scratch build of zeitgeist: [david@f17 zeitgeist]$ fedpkg build --scratch Building zeitgeist-0.8.2-3.fc18 for rawhide Created task: 4084217 Task info: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4084217 but there were numerous failures within the extra/ontology subdirectory of the form: Traceback (most recent call last): File "../../extra/rdfxml2py", line 40, in <module> parse(sys.stdin) File "../../extra/rdfxml2py", line 31, in parse pycode = ontology.serialize(format="python") File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/rdflib/graph.py", line 767, in serialize serializer.serialize(stream, base=base, encoding=encoding, **args) File "/builddir/build/BUILD/zeitgeist-0.8.2/extra/PythonSerializer.py", line 98, in serialize stream, symbol, symbol_classes.union(set([NIENS["InformationElement"], NIENS["DataObject"]])) File "/builddir/build/BUILD/zeitgeist-0.8.2/extra/PythonSerializer.py", line 89, in _create_symbol root_type, symbol, display_name, doc) TypeError: 'unicode' does not have the buffer interface I'm guessing that this might be a result of a recent version bump in python-rdflib. Looking in the root.log, this was using python-rdflib-3.2.0-4.fc17 The most recent build of zeitgeist was zeitgeist-0.8.2-3.fc17 ( http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=292223 ), which was against python-rdflib-3.1.0-1.fc17.noarch
