Exactly. It's had to be diverged. And they're not identical versions, epel7 has 2.9.21, and Fedora 34 has 2.9.23. > I guess I don't understand what your concern is here... if we required > rawhide to build for all targets, why do we have branches at all?

Sure. I'm suggesting that there is a risk and difficulty to abandoning python2-setuptools. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
