It's not considered ready for production by the developers, yet.

Thank you, I will make the request ASAP.

AFAIK it's currently in alpha stage, I would wait for the next GIT tag.

I think FESCo would agree to temporarily continue building it with
python2, given that upstream has already worked on supporting building
with python3 eventually. At least, I would approve such an exception
request (and other, similar requests for firefox, chromium, etc. have
already been approved).

But, if you think a current git snapshot would be an appropriate
target for packaging, that solves the problem as well (I don't know
how stable their development branch is).

Python2 is only needed to build the package using the WAF build system.

Ardour has been undergoing a complete rewriting for 2 years, no stable versions 
have been released in the last 2 years,
so we are stuck with ardour 5.12, which still uses python2 to build.

What do you think about that?


Just package git master in Rawhide. It has been migrated to waf 2.0.19
two months ago and builds just fine in Fedora 32 environments with
Python 3 only.

Maybe it's time to package it from a commit checkout? Master branch has 
had 3600+ commits since v5.2... I suppose it has gained support for Python3.

Does it fail to build if you update the bundled copy of Waf to a
version that works with Python 3?

Intent to request a FESCo exception for python2 for ardour5

2020-03-15 Thread Guido Aulisi
Hi,

I’m going to ask a FESCo exception for python2 for package ardour5.
Python2 is only needed to build the package using the WAF build system.

Ardour has been undergoing a complete rewriting for 2 years, no stable versions 
have been released in the last 2 years,
so we are stuck with ardour 5.12, which still uses python2 to build.

What do you think about that?

Ciao
Guido
