I have added a patch for the spec file for python-tzlocal.spec

that allows the 4.1 release to build.

I can raise a PR if that helps, but I have not done that before

so pointers to the work flow would be welcomed.

A PR is best, that way even a provenpackager can easly help you out if the maintainer doesn't respond. The workflow is very similar to a PR in github if you've done that before.

Also an email to <package>-maintainer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx will send an email to all the maintainers of a package and can be useful for a nudge.

Thanks. I'll follow up when I get a quiet moment.

I have this working in my copr, but it was a lot harder than I hoped.
All the parts are in https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/barryascott/tools-testing/

This is now a lot more then a PR...

I had to:
* package pytz_deprecation_shim that is a new dependance.
* add boiler plate setup.py to allow the setup.cfg to be used to build tzlocal
* add AutoProvReg: no to stop unused refs being auto added (should only need AutoProv: no).
* turn off the tests in %check as they want to use pip to install stuff
* learn that rpmbuild is not close to mock/copr build again :-)

Thanks,
Richard
