Package: src:python-pipdeptree Version: 2.30.0-1 User: [email protected] Usertags: python3.15 Tags: patch, ftbfs, forky, sid Severity: important
Hi! While rebuilding the python related packages against the Python 3.15rc2 version we found that python-pipdeptree fails to build from source [1]. The error is: E importlib.metadata.MetadataNotFound: No package metadata was found. This is caused by a change in behavior in Python 3.15. To fix it, I applied a backport of the upstream commit fe58ab5: Expect dist.metadata to be None or raise an exception if invalid [2] I've applied the upstream fix in the sandbox [3] to verify that it builds successfully, please consider applying the patch to support the upcoming 3.15 version. Setting the severity to important for now. Once Python 3.15 is released, it will be added to python3-defaults and this bug will become release critical.
