Hello Python packagers.
RPM 4.19 introduces this feature:
https://rpm-software-management.github.io/rpm/manual/dynamic_specs.html
I decided to write this email to gather my thoughts. I believe that with this,
we can turn manual Python extras subpackages like this:
%package -n python3-...
Summary: %{summary}
%description -n python3-... %_description
%pyproject_extras_subpkg -n python3-xxx extra1 extra2
(See https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Python/#Extras
for what that means.)
Into something like this:
%package -n python3-...
Summary: %{summary}
%description -n python3-... %_description
...
%install
%pyproject_install
...
%pyproject_generate_extras_subpkgs -n python3-xxx
The %pyproject_generate_extras_subpkgs macro would parse the installed
.dist-info directory to find out what extras are available and generate
subpackages for all of them.
One challenge: When an extra is removed upstream, the packager might not notice
that it needs to be provided/obsole>
That is indeed a problem. What if we made the macro require the list of
subpackages (e.g. as a comma separated string) as an argument? The if the
packager wouldn't notice the removal, they'd get a build error.
We already have that today without dynamic subpackages, because when you know
the list ahead, you can "generate" subpackages already.
$ rpm --eval '%pyproject_extras_subpkg -n python3-... extra1 extra2'
%package -n python3-...+extra1
Summary: Metapackage for python3-...: extra1 extras
Requires: python3-... = %{version}-%{release}
%description -n python3-...+extra1
This is a metapackage bringing in extra1 extras requires for python3-....
It makes sure the dependencies are installed.
%files -n python3-...+extra1 -f
