Packages FTBFS with Python 3.6

[Miro Hrončok]

Hi all,
We've recently tried to rebuild all Python packages with Python 3.6. 
However, we currently have bunch of packages that simply fail to build.

As the list contains >200 packages, it would be very helpful, if you 
(package maintainers) could help us solve the issues, as we cannot go 
one by one to investigate the issue.

I've attached the list of failed packages (failed.txt). You can search 
Koji to find out, what went wrong. Sometimes, it's just  missing 
dependency. That dependency should be on this list as well. If it is 
not,  maybe we lost it, please tell us if that's the case. Maybe the 
dependency is circular and something needs to be bootstrapped. If you 
need provenpackager powers, let me know.

Everything currently happens in a side tag. I will notify you when the 
side tag gets merged.

To build your package in mock, I've attached a configuration file for it 
(fedora-rawhide-x86_64-p36.cfg).

Some useful commands:

fedpkg build --target=f26-python3 # build in Koji from git

fedpkg build --target=f26-python3 --scratch # scratch build in Koji from git

koji build f26-python3 --scratch <srpm> # scratch build in Koji from SRPM

fedpkg srpm && mock -r fedora-rawhide-x86_64-p36 <srpm> # mock build

Thanks for your help.

The side tag is being merged. Please wait for now and later* build in 
rawhide as usual.

* You can build in rawhide already, but you might get mixed dependencies 
for a while.

I've fixed python-smartcols and python-behave..

Attaching current rawhide/koji packages which depend on python 3.5
instead of 3.6 still.

Fixed rpy (with a workaround for the moment).

The problem is within R. R-core is already aware:
