Right - that's the other help hopefully to reduce bugzilla issues filed against the wrong component.
See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/Python3XHere is some feedback: First, aren't we trying to move off the wiki? Wouldn't this be a better candidate for the EPEL docs on docs.fp.o?
Sure, except I know nothing about how docs.fp.o works ;)
separate Python 3 minor versions in EPEL 8 are packaged as separate python3X (currently python38) packages to allow for independent versions for each Python version.There is also python39.

== Issues == * How to handle %{py3_dist} macro?I believe `%{py3_dist}` works properly if you add `%global python3_pkgversion 3X`.
It looks like it's hard-coded to python3dist, so I think it has to change to %{py38_dist}.
When I built ansible-5 for Python 3.8, I just ran `:%s python3-/python% {python3_pkgversion}-/` and added `%global python3_pkgversion 38`. `% {python3_pkgversion}` is set to 3 by default. I would recommend doing that in your example instead of hardcoding `python38`.
Yeah, I think maybe a sed script is in order.
== Example Spec == <pre>[...]%global sum An example python moduleI don't think there's any point to have a %sum macro when you can use `% {summary}` in subpackage definitions. Admittedly, this is more of a packaging nitpick than a comment related to the issue at hand :D.%global __python3 /usr/bin/python3.8I think it's better to add `Requires: python%{python3_pkgversion}-rpm-macros`. To be fair, they both do effectively the same thing: set %__python3 to the correct value. In any case, I submitted https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ epel-rpm-macros/pull-request/44 so neither should be necessary.%check %{__python3} setup.py testI was going to suggest using `%pytest`, but then I remembered that https:// pagure.io/releng/issue/10679 is still outstanding :(.%files -n python38-%{srcname}[...]%{python3_sitelib}/*Globs like this are against the Python Packaging Guidelines.
True. Fixed. Thanks. -- Orion Poplawski he/him/his - surely the least important thing about me IT Systems Manager 720-772-5637 NWRA, Boulder/CoRA Office FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane or...@nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 https://www.nwra.com/
