Hey all,
In the interest of helping to modernize the infrastructure Fedora runs on, I'm working on introducing Pagure into EPEL8. This will hopefully allow us to upgrade our Pagure instances to use RHEL 8 instead of RHEL 7, and notably, make the transition (mostly) complete for moving all Python software Fedora runs to Python 3.
I've done an early build locally to determine what's needed to make this possible. The following report from DNF indicates the missing packages that need to be added to EPEL 8 before I can introduce Pagure into EPEL8:
Problem 1: conflicting requests - nothing provides python3-jenkins needed by pagure-ci-5.8-1.el8.noarch Problem 2: conflicting requests - nothing provides gitolite3 needed by pagure-5.8-1.el8.noarch - nothing provides python3.6dist(binaryornot) needed by pagure-5.8-1.el8.noarch - nothing provides python3.6dist(celery) needed by pagure-5.8-1.el8.noarch - nothing provides python3.6dist(flask-wtf) needed by pagure-5.8-1.el8.noarch - nothing provides python3.6dist(redis) needed by pagure-5.8-1.el8.noarch - nothing provides python3.6dist(straight.plugin) needed by pagure-5.8-1.el8.noarch - nothing provides python3.6dist(wtforms) needed by pagure-5.8-1.el8.noarch - nothing provides python3.6dist(pygit2) >= 0.26.0 needed by pagure-5.8-1.el8.noarch Problem 3: conflicting requests - nothing provides python3-trololio needed by pagure-ev-5.8-1.el8.noarch
One of the reasons I'd like to have this done sooner rather than later is so that we can drop Python 2 support from Pagure with version 6.0. I think it's quite reasonable to say that version 6.0 isn't going to happen until we can get our Pagure servers running on EL8 using Python 3.
So now, I need some help making this happen. I already own trololio, and I'm going to make that available in EPEL 8 ASAP. Can anyone help with some of the other dependencies here?
Thanks in advance, Neal
