Help with Python package

[W. Michael Petullo]

I maintain Fedora's academic-admin package, and I found that it will
not compile on Rawhide. Building in mock/Fedora 42 works fine. On
Rawhide, I get:

$ mock -r fedora-rawhide-x86_64 --rebuild [...]/academic-admin-0.11.2-1.fc42.src.rpm
[...]
LookupError: tox configuration not found. To use tox, please ensure tox configuration is located in current directory (in tox.ini, setup.cfg, pyproject.toml, or tox.toml). See https://tox.wiki/en/latest/config.html for details.
[...]

I am not sure why the build process is running Tox on mock/Rawhide. I
tried a few variations, including adding an explicit %check section,
both one that was empty and one that contained %pytest; and also patching
out any mention of tox in the source tree.

The version I am trying to build is:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/academic-admin/tree/ce2905f7c753cad748c33...

Does anyone see what I am missing?

You have passed `-t` to `pyproject_buildrequires`; it was always using
tox, now it's an error to try it if there's no configuration for it
available.

That was it. Thank you!
