I took a look at pypy3, and I see we already define pypy3 variants of the python3 macros... Do we want to deduplicate them and maybe have a macro switch for flipping the interpreter? In that case, then pypy3-devel should BR python3-rpm-macros... -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ python-devel mailing list -- python-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-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/python-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
