Hi folks, The RHEL 9 composes do not have libev-devel and libuv-devel, so we cannot build python-gevent on EPEL 9 easily.
(It's possible to package the missing -devel packages separately, and I've been doing this by automatically following the NVR changes in Stream 9's Koji for several weeks with scripts at https://github.com/ktdreyer/ceph-el9. My conclusion is that it is so painful that it's not sustainable to do this for years.) This means that python-pytest-cov and python-pytest-xdist won't be available on epel9, since those require gevent. Several Python packages require python-pytest-cov because upstream lists it in requirements.txt or tests-requirements.txt. I think we should just patch these out in Fedora. Even apart from RHEL's restrictions, it's not a good use of resources to run pytest-cov when no one reviews coverage reports in the Koji logs, and we'll speed up builds when mock doesn't have to install this spurious BuildRequires. Here are a list of packages where I've removed pytest-cov: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-watchdog/pull-request/4 https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-cheroot/pull-request/15 https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-portend/pull-request/5 https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-typing-extensions/pull-request/3 - Ken _______________________________________________ epel-devel mailing list -- epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to epel-devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
