I was speaking to the Octobus guys on IRC about this, and the issues
reported earlier about hg-git and evolve are fixed in the default
branch tip, just not in a release yet. Can you try pulling snapshots
for hg-git and evolve based on tip and see if the situation has
improved?
I'd rather just have us yank Python 2 entirely from the Mercurial
stack. Barring that, it _is_ possible to make de-conflicted Python 2
and Python 3 packages. I'd rather the Python 2 one be non-default no
matter what, since we *are* removing the Python 2 stack in Fedora 32,
full stop.
If you need help with making less ugly versions of a py2+py3 packaging
of Mercurial, I'd be happy to help there.
Hi Neal! Any help is welcomed! I am going to look at it tonight again to
push it little more. Honestly, I prefer to have Py3 mercurial installed
by default as well, but I have strong feeling that people disagree with
that (sad). I will try to finish the split tonight. After that, it should
be question of several minutes of playing with %files sections and pkg
names to keep Py3 separated or separate Py2 packages instead.
