[EPEL-devel] Ansible & Python 3 in EPEL7

[Igor Gnatenko]

Hey folks,

We recently started to use Ansible more and we are using some ansible
collection which is not compatible with Python 2.

Are there any plans to switch Ansible to Python 3 in EPEL7 or are
there any recommendations what to do in such cases as we have?

No need to apologize, noone ever can know all possible problems in advance.

[EPEL-devel] HEADS UP: epel-rpm-macros now makes python mangling shebangs to python3.6

[Igor Gnatenko]

Hello EPEL maintainers and users,

I've found today that epel8 builds are mangling python shebangs to
platform-python (which is somewhat internal implementation of python
for internal RHEL needs). So depending on that is quite problematic
and will break at some point.

+ PYTHON3=/usr/libexec/platform-python
+ /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/brp-mangle-shebangs
mangling shebang in /usr/local/bin/attach_volume.py from
/usr/bin/python3 to #!/usr/libexec/platform-python

After changes, it will mangle it to the /usr/bin/python3.6

Thanks to Miro Hrončok for working with me and now we have a fix which
is awaiting for karma in bodhi[0]. Please give it a try.

[EPEL-devel] Re: Is Koschei using CentOS 7 in the EPEL 7 resolve check?

[Igor Gnatenko]

I think it uses koji build repo. So same as epel buildroot does.

[EPEL-devel] Re: Does EPEL support people who do not upgrade RHEL?

[Igor Gnatenko]

I believe that EPEL is not meant to support all possible old versions of
RHEL. It is built against latest release, so the expectation is that it
supports only latest release.

[EPEL-devel] [HEADS UP] Removal of obsolete scriptlets

[Igor Gnatenko]

I'm going to push multiple commits to packages (I'll send list later)
which execute scriptlets which are not needed anymore for Fedora.

However, people tend to keep same spec for Fedora and EPEL which makes
everything much more complicated. So please, if you have such package,
guard scriptlets by `%if 0%{?rhel} && 0%{?rhel} <= 8` (because I
believe that RHEL8 doesn't have all required things).

[EPEL-devel] Orphaning libgit2 for EPEL*

[Igor Gnatenko]

Hello,

When I picked libgit2 after orphaning somehow I picked up EPEL
branches as well. But Unfortunately I don't have power nor wilingness
to maintain it for EPEL, so I orphaned it right now.

Feel free to pick it up!
