(This is mostly a duplicate of a post I sent to devel@. I wanted to alert epel-devel@ but didn't want to crosspost.) Following my proposal in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Tibbs/EPELPythonStubPackages which met with favor from a number of folks here, I went ahead and set up four dummy packages: python2-setuptools (in EPEL6) python2-sphinx (EPEL7) python2-pytest (EPEL7) python2-six (EPEL7) I'll do EPEL6 versions of the latter tomorrow. (I forgot that I can only request one branch with the initial repo request. Oops. In my defense, that's a really odd restriction.) These should, once actually pushed to stable, allow you to avoid having to add conditionals to depend on setuptools/sphinx/pytest/six in EPEL. If this works out for folks, I (or anyone else) can potentially add similar dummy packages for every package which needs one. Anything to cut down on those conditionals. Please check my work, test and give karma as appropriate. They seem to work fine for me when I set up a local repo and do some mock builds, but I only have access to Centos so I guess anything is possible. - J< _______________________________________________ epel-devel mailing list -- epel-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to epel-devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
