Oggetto: BuildRequires on obsoleted packages provided by Python
A: "Development discussions related to Fedora" <
de...@lists.fedoraproject.org>
Cc: "Fedora Python SIG" <python-de...@lists.fedoraproject.org>

> Hello all,
>
> While checking out the SPEC file of python, it seems there were some
packages that, while separate at some point, they got included in python's
stdlib and then obsoleted as standalone packages (thus to cope with the
change, python was obsoleting these packages and providing them as well in
the SPEC). So every package that currently (Build)Requires any of these
packages will essentially drag python with it.

> I will remove these provides soon, since the packages were orphaned long
time ago, but the packages that still require them, will need to be fixed
and (Build)Require python instead.

to rename python to python2 soon, which will lead to a re-review of python,
so at the moment trying to have things as clear and consistent as possible.
Plans for that change is only for rawhide (although it would be nice for
f25 as well).
