[opensuse-factory] Python2 is EOL - List of package candidates to be removed soon
Dear Packagers and users Python2 has been EOL for a few months already by now. We eliminated all (well, most) python2-* packages by now (some remain in the tree as the source packages fail to build, but since they often do py2 and py3 from one source, I can't just wipe them) Anyway, I went through the list of packages that are currently reported 'uninstallable' due to missing dependencies and I list here all that report missing py2- dependencies. If they are not being ported to py3 by May 15, I'll do hard-delete request of them (the packages are already not installable; so no functionality would be lost in Tumbleweed) I mainly give the time in good faith that the maintainers forgot about them (or shiften their priorities) - and somebody might want to pick up the pieces. Of course, if a package is deleted, it can always be re- introduced at a later time when the issues are fixed too. So, here comes the list: DisplayCAL barbie_seahorse_adventure chameleon cram createrepo (we have been using createrepo_c for a while already) crudini cups-airprint dogtail double-cross exaile gedit-latex hollywood impressive kraft libewf lostfeathers ndpmon openvswitch ovirt-guest-agent paperwork py-fishcrypt scat solarfighter solarwolf solarwolf_we vusb-analyzer weather-wallpaper xboxdrv I know, it's quite a list - but keep in mind: those packages are currently not installable. So - no fix until May 15 and the packages are gone :) If you want any of those packages to stay, provide fixes for them (or find somebody that can fix it for you). Cheers, Dominique

Not sure if people are using this, but I just took a quick look; we aren't on the latest version, and it is now supposed to work with python 3. I might update it later if someone else doesn't do it first. -Mike -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

I did ping folks from RH Desktop QA regarding dogtail as they heavily use it for any desktop testing. All is based on the accessibility bridge. Cheers On Wed, 2020-05-06 at 21:17 +0200, Dominique Leuenberger / DimStar wrote:

I submitted a request to update it: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/701218 But fcrozat is listed as maintainer, and I think that he is still on paternity leave and might not be checking his email, so probably no one reviewing it--not sure what I should do here. -Mike -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

The removal of DisplayCAL is no loss compared to what we currently have in Tumbleweed:
sudo zypper in DisplayCAL Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... Resolving package dependencies...
Problem: nothing provides python2-gobject needed by DisplayCAL-3.8.9.3- 2.2.x86_64 Solution 1: do not install DisplayCAL-3.8.9.3-2.2.x86_64 Solution 2: break DisplayCAL-3.8.9.3-2.2.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies Choose from above solutions by number or cancel [1/2/c/d/?] (c): so the result is essentially the same - either with a package that exists and can't be used, or a package that does not exist. Cheers, Dominique

so the result is essentially the same - either with a package that exists and can't be used, or a package that does not exist.
But think of the sentimental value of having a unusable package vs not having it at all :D -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Forgot about that one. Since it "builds" just fine I assumed it was OK. I'll do the conversion to python3 myself, and test that it still works. Maybe even pick up some of the enhancements that have popped up on various forks on Github. Would you mind extending the deadline for deletion by a week for this package?

Hi Olav, Thanks for your message. Works for me. I'll keep that one around a bit longer. Cheers, Dominique
