Hey all,

I'm building python-uswid as a rpm as it's going to be needed by the fwupd-efi 
package at build time in the near future. I'm also the upstream maintainer, so 
I'm not against changing upstream and then tagging a new release if there's 
something that needs to be fixed to build a Fedora package. I'm no python 
expert, so advice very welcome.

I've uploaded a srpm here and I'd appreciate some early 40,000ft checks before 
I submit a Fedora package review: 
https://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/temp/python-uswid-0.4.1-1.fc37.src.rpm
 -- the upstream is https://github.com/hughsie/python-uswid/ for the curious.

Thanks!

Hey Richard.

I agree with what Neal said, plus:

You might want to follow the current Python packaging guidelines, i.e. use this template:

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Python/#_empty_spec_file

The main added benefit for this package:

Runtime requires aromatically generated as BuildRequires, so when tests run, they are installed and it works. Currently you don't BR python3-{cbor2,lxml,pefile} and hence the tests might fail. I'd be surprised if the tests pass without the runtime deps (it might indicate the tests are not "good enough").

The added benefit is that if the package would miss runtime dependencies, it won't build and you will realize the problem sooner.

Considering you are also the upstream, it allows you to specify test dependencies upstream (e.g. as an [test] extra, I can help with that) and not copy-paste the information into the spec file (I understand that if the only tests dependency is pytest, this does not sound like a big deal, but generally, it gets the packaging part easier).
