https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1375670 --- Comment #6 from Charalampos Stratakis <cstratak@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Package is updated to 2.6.9, the latest patch version of Python 2.6 upstream: https://hg.python.org/cpython/raw-file/v2.6.9/Misc/NEWS Package is flat, meaning that there are no subpackages, all the files and directories are at the main package. As it seems there is no debug build. Binaries, as well as libraries and man pages are removed or renamed so they do not conflict with the system python package. The binary for this package is renamed to python26, and invoking it fires up the 2.6.9 shell. python(abi) is not required/provided. setuptools and pip are not bundled in this package as upstream started bundling them from python2 >= 2.7.9 and python3 >= 3.4. Tested on F23 VM which I upgraded to F24, F25 and rawhide. No regressions noted and nothing seems to conflict with base python package or anything else. _bsddb module is disabled since the dependencies for building python 2.6 with this module cannot be satisfied in released Fedora versions. Various fixes have been applied which were/are present on current python2 package (Python 2.7), in order for it to work properly. I would like to dig in two things [0][1] though before the package is accepted, although they do not seem problematic with a first look [0] https://github.com/fedora-python/python26/commit/aabf03169e2263865a33fa86268a2b0260bf3fd5 [1] https://github.com/fedora-python/python26/commit/8f9ecb10686e54ad913e8054b6e95745b1669a62 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
