Hi!

I am currently trying to build python-M2Crypto for SLE-12:Update and the build fails with python3 unable to import the "xmlrpc" module:

[ 121s] File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/_import_failed/xmlrpc.py", line 17, in <module> [ 121s] to install it.""".format(__name__, package)) [ 121s] ImportError: Module 'xmlrpc' is not installed.

What's strange about this is that xmlrpc is normally a module that is shipped with Python's standard library. However, looking into the standard library path for python3.4, /usr/lib64/python3.4, the folder "xmlrpc" is missing.

Anyone knows what I am overlooking? I had a look at Debian and sure enough, xmlrpc is present in the standard library in the python3.4 package.

SUSE packaging of Python is a little broken compared to Fedora and Debian. In this specific case, xmlrpc failed to build correctly (along with several other modules).

Last I checked, the following modules are busted/unavailable in SUSE Python 3:

* curses * dbm * ensurepip * idlelib * pyexpat * readline * sqlite3 * test * tkinter * turtledemo * xml * xmlrpc * xxlimited

Actually, wait, check and see if you're pulling in the `python3` package.

Thanks for your answer! We are already resolving this issue internally as this affects only the enterprise distributions anyway. My mail just showed up because I accidentally posted it from my private mail address first instead of my SUSE one. I asked for the mail to be dropped when it bounced from the list but it seems it eventually came through.
