Created attachment 734105 [details] Patch for python-setuptools spec, also contains the upstream patch. During some builds, distribute tests tend to timeout as reported upstream in [1]. This was solved by upstream commit [2]. I'm attaching a patch that contains this fix that can be applied directly into dist-git. Would you please consider applying it into Rawhide and Fedora 19? Thanks! [1] https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/315/testpackageindex-frequently-fails-on [2] https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/commits/8d053cd2bf8ef25501afd2d50825b8168c62b2d4
Hmm... Looking at my local git repo it seems that I was actually working on an update that would have included this but got sidetracked by unittest failures and then sucked away by holidays, fudcon, and pycon: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=868500#c1 That particular failure is supposed to be fixed now so let me just try updating f19 and rawhide. (F18 and earlier I'm not sure about.)
python-setuptools-0.6.36-1.fc19 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 19. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/python-setuptools-0.6.36-1.fc19
Unless the change was reverted later, that package should fix this issue. Thanks for poking me and reminding me that I needed to work on updating this. If you think there's a case for pushing this back to older Fedora releases, just let me know. I'm up in the air about it and a simple request from someone else will probably get me to push the update back.
Thank you. I don't think that we need to push these to already stable releases, unless we need to fix setuptools there (which we probably won't) and the test fail during the update...
