Sure. But you can learn basic tasks as build using "Mock", minors changes in

Also imho I expect that Fedora packages will receive security fixes and
serious bugs will be fixed (of course still considering that Fedora is mostly
a volunteer-driven distro). Without upstream support this is very hard to do.
Also many upstream libraries are dropping Python 2 support now.

If someone feels (s)he knows enough about the code to keep a Python 2 version
secure it is likely easier just to do an upstream port to Python 3.
I consider Python code which does not support Python 3 as "unmaintained"
(unless there is clear evidence of a Python 3 port going on).

IMHO the current Fedora policy with regards to Python 2 is very reasonable. We
will be shipping python2 in F32 for some packages as an exception. I'm willing
to maintain some of my python2 packages in Fedora so dependent packages get
some more time to migrate but ultimately upstream decided to stop supporting
Python 2 and that affects Fedora.

As I wrote in another e-mail, upstream is working to port the program to
python3. There is a related branch on github.

Sorry but by mentioning a retired package, and the possibility to package
it again in Fedora once upstream will release a python3 version, it was not
my intention to trigger a discussion about python2 policies and procedures
that, as far as I know, they were pretty clear since a lot of time.

I have never used bleachbit, but I took a look at this program to see if
it would be a simple matter to convert it to python3.  It won't.  The
program uses the python2 and gtk2 module pygtk.  To convert it to
python3, the entire program would have to be rewritten to use gtk3 for
python3. gtk2 and gtk3 don't have the same api calls, so someone with
domain knowledge of gtk2 and gtk3 would have to do this (I don't have
that knowledge).

It looks like the command line version doesn't use the gtk module, only
the gui version.  So it probably would be fairly simple to convert the
program to a python3 version that only worked via the command line by
stripping all the gui code.  As long as the other modules it uses to
do its actual function are compatible with python3.  I didn't check that
deeply.

Let's be clear about the "culprit": Upstream decided to EOL Python 2 in
January 2020. Fedora 31 (which ships Python 2) will be a supported Fedora
release until ~ November 2020 so we have quite some time where Fedora's Python
maintainers will try to secure Python 2 on their own.

I don't think it is a valid option for Fedora to ship an EOL language for much
longer. Also any upstream project which did not start the Python 3 transition
over the last 3 years is essentially "dead upstream" which also leads to
problems getting bug fixes.

If you really need to run a Python 2 code base try packaging it for pypy. Due
to pypy's internals it will support Python 2 basically "forever" (see pypy FAQ).


While pypy is indeed supported by upstream, it's mostly the libraries and 
ecosystem dropping Python 2 support that would block such dead software to be 
included in Fedora.

FESCo doesn't just deny requests to keep python2 packages willy-nilly:
- 20 requests were accepted
- 4 were closed because the port to python3 happened in the meantime
- 1 was closed because maintainers assume that a port will happen before F32
- 1 was rejected because maintainers couldn't provide a list of packages that 
need the exception
- 1 was rejected because there was no hope for a python3 port because of lack 
of development.

Also note that there is a blanket approval for using just python2 at
build time.

Unfortunately, this package will eventually be hurt by this new FESCo policy 
to remove Python2. It is unfortunate, but cannot really be avoided. If it 
doesn't get a FESCo exception (and FESCo has denied several exceptions, 
regardless of the package actually having a maintainer), it will be removed 
without consent from you or another maintainer.

We could comaintain it, if you like, even if I'm not an expert
packager.
Bleachbit was retired from F31 [1]
Another point is that bleachbit version 3.0 still requires python2.
So, since "the top priority [of bleachbit developers] is to update
Python 2.7 to Python 3" [2], it make sense to wait the new version
before proceeding to unretire it and submit a new package, even if
there is a python3 branch on github [3]

I'm already a packager, and I'd be willing to take over BleachBit. This way you 
don't have to wait for Silvia to learn the ropes before handing off control.

Silvia, I am a sponsor. Can you provide me a list of packages you have
reviewed? I can probably help you becoming a packager.

Hello,

Yes, I know Python 2 will be soon removed, but I can't just let Bleachbit
die.  It's too useful for that.
Finding a sponsor seems to be the hard bit.  I've been looking for one for
ages.
Thanks for the answer.

Kind regards,
Silvia

Usually, to become a package maintainer you should get sponsored by 
creating your first package and by commenting to some reviews:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_the_package_collection_maintainers?rd=PackageMaintainers/Join

Since you don't have any new package to add, you could just start doing 
some informal reviews to get acquainted with the Fedora Packaging 
Guidelines and to find some sponsor that will let you join the packager 
group:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_get_sponsored_into_the_packager_group#Become_a_co-maintainer

Be advised that Python2 will soon be removed from Fedora and from what I 
can see Bleachbit requires Python2... unless upstream switches to 
support Python3, this could be the wrong package to start with as it 
will be retired as well.

Hello,

I don't have experience maintaining packages but I'm willing to maintain
Bleachbit as I use it a lot, it's the first programme I install when I do a
fresh install.  Let me know what I need to do and I'll take care.

Kind regards,
