[HEADS UP] Retiring python2 and introducing python27 later this week

[Miro Hrončok]

We are retiring python2 and introducing python27 later this week. Rawhide only.

As for now, nothing should break, except python2-debug will exist no more.

Packages (build)requiring python2 or python2-devel should continue to work for 
now. If not, let us know.

If you plan to keep a Python 2 package in Fedora 32+, talk to me, I can help you 
draft an exception request.

Will post a reply here once it is done.

The following packages build subpackages for python2-debug (and should stop 
doing it in Fedora 32+):

- gcc-python-plugin (FTBFS)
- python-mysql (PR exists)
- python-psycopg2 (notified in an existing bugzilla)

I guess we need to keep `python2-reportlab` and `python2-scons`.

For what?

`python2-reportlab` looks no longer used by other packages.
`python2-scons` is still required instead:

$ repoquery --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=fedora-source
--enablerepo=updates-source --release rawhide --whatrequires python2-scons


libffado-0:2.4.1-6.fc30.src

minicomputer-0:1.41-26.fc31.src

mypaint-0:1.2.1-20.fc30.src

So the idea is that somebody would like to keep libffado or minicomputer or 
mypaint and we would help them. That would also preserve python2-scons if needed.

I'd rather not try to keep a Python library just for the sake of the library itself.

python27 build in progress.

Will retire python2 later tomorrow or on Friday (in case something is terribly 
broken I want to have some maneuvering space).

Hey Miro,

I can't rebuild python-wxpython4 with the new python27.  This is what I'm seeing
in the logs but it seems that the root cause is that /usr/include/python2.7/pyconfig-64.h
is missing?

I've noticed this as well today. It is a packaging bug with excludes and I'm 
working on a hotfix. Will push ASAP, testing locally.

python27-2.7.16-9.fc32 appears to be fixed. Thanks for the report.

pygobject3-devel ? Re: [HEADS UP] Retiring python2 and introducing python27 later this week

[Sérgio Basto]

Hello, 
Is just a question . 
Can we have python2-gobject-devel and python3-gobject-devel instead
pygobject3-devel [1] ?

pygobject3-devel installs python27 and more python2 packages 

Thanks

On gnome-python2.spec [1] we got an error [2]
