Dear openSUSE Tumbleweed users,

It has been a long road, but we have reached the destination: Python 3.8 has been checked in to Factory after the Staging was finally passed. We spent two more days working out a bunch of non-ring failures as well, trying to make the switch as smooth as possible - and openQA agrees with us: openSUSE Tumbleweed - Snapshot 20200309 will contain python 3.8 and is currently in progress of being synced out to the mirrors.

As this is a major jump, I'm (unfortunately) almost sure the update won't reach you without you noticing it. There is potential for many packages not being rebuilt (or rather, having failed to rebuild) - and, depending on what you have installed, zypper dup might ask you to eliminate some packages that are no longer compatible (could be also coming from 3rd party repos, that did not yet rebuild against python 3.8)

I noticed ;-) Kidding, with the fixes applied, that are in flight at the moment, the major packages, that I care about, are functional again, with one exception: FreeCAD. Interestingly, others have brought it to life with 3.8 long ago. The good ones: openshot: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/784337 https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/784196 All new and shiny 2.5.1 - my son likes it. python-ipyparallel: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/784405 That one is blocking the whole jupyter stack. spyder: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/784702 blender: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/784698 While not exactly a 3.8 issue, this is the fresh from the press version 2.82a. Remember the universe at a cats collar in Men in Black: this is the software equivalent with 3D matters..
