https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1525984 --- Comment #3 from Jared Smith <jsmith.fedora@xxxxxxxxx> --- The only version of EPEL I'm really interested in at this point is EPEL 7, so I was following the proposed EPEL 7 python packaging guidelines at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts:Python3EPEL, with more explanation at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Bkabrda/EPEL7_Python3 As for the %py2_install/%py3_install macros, I attempted to use those originally, but they failed with the following error: + /usr/bin/python2 setup.py install -O1 --skip-build --root /home/jsmith/Build/BUILDROOT/python-ruamel-std-pathlib-0.6.3-2.fc28.x86_64 error: you have to install with "pip install ." error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.qH8GI7 (%install) I'd appreciate any help figuring out why that's failing. (I'm no expert at setup.py, but it appears that it throws that message if the "--single-version-externally-managed" isn't passed in.)
