I would start discarding all workarounds in packages like %if 0%{?rhel} # do just python2 %endif and harmonize EPEL-7 with Fedora. Then we can see how much true maintenance in EPEL7 we have (plenty of packages actually do use the unified spec for all distros). > I think this is somewhat representative of the changes needed in a more > complicated package (setuptools) which isn't actually too terrrible: Of course, packages like python-setuptools should go first.
