Hi,
(I sent this to epel-devel but did not get any reply there so maybe
fedora-devel is a better place for this question even though this is about EPEL
packages?)
the packaging guidelines have a few excemptions for the package review process
[1]. I'm working on updating certbot to Python 3 in EPEL 7 (rhbz 1797129, [2]).
I need some additional Python 3 packages in EPEL 7 to achieve that and my
question is which of these packages should get a proper review.
A) python3-augeas
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2043744
This is mostly the Fedora spec with just on additional bugfix (already
upstream).
B) python3-josepy
intended spec file:
https://github.com/FelixSchwarz/certbot-epel7-python3/blob/rawhide/python3-josepy/python-josepy.spec
I did not want to upgrade the existing EPEL 7 package as the required version
is Python 3 only. We can not use some newer macros like %pytest but otherwise
the spec is the same as in Fedora.
C) python3-boto3
python-boto3 (Python 2) version is in RHEL and won't get a Python3 package.
intended spec file:
https://github.com/FelixSchwarz/certbot-epel7-python3/blob/rawhide/python3-boto3/python3-boto3.spec
The spec file is very close to the RHEL spec file just with some customizations
removed.
Should I try to get reviews for each of the three packages or can I skip some
of these according to the Fedora review policy?
If I assume correctlty that both python-augeas and python-boto3 are in RHEL 7,
this exception applies:
"""
The package exists in both Fedora and RHEL, but the packager wants to ship it
in EPEL under an alternative name (as required by EPEL policy) to provide a
subpackage that exists in Fedora but does not exist (or is not shipped) in RHEL.
"""
I don't think this rule applies to python3-josepy, as python-josepy exists in
EPEL7, not RHEL7.
