That's the entire reason I've brought this up. Any implicit dependency on python2 should be made explicit, and the "un-python-versioned" packages shouldn't be used as dependencies unless the package really does not care which version it gets.

I'm actually just going to submit a review for a python2-setuptools dummy package to take care of the most annoying case. If someone really dislikes this idea enough to block that, then I guess I'll find out. - J< _______________________________________________ epel-devel mailing list epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
