http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1178257 Bug ID: 1178257 Summary: rpm-build-python needs setuptools but cannot require on it Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: Other OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem Assignee: screening-team-bugs@suse.de Reporter: code@bnavigator.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Some packages can build without python-setuptools and thus do not depend on it. In this case /usr/lib/rpm/pythondistdeps.py fails in rpm packaging phase: [ 17s] Traceback (most recent call last): [ 17s] File "/usr/lib/rpm/pythondistdeps.py", line 105, in <module> [ 17s] from pkg_resources import Distribution, FileMetadata, PathMetadata, Requirement [ 17s] ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pkg_resources' But rpm-build-python depending on python-setuptools is not possible, because that would create a dependency loop with setuptools and its build dependencies (python-ordered-set) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
