Instead packages for Python 3 MUST use /usr/bin/python3 (even if upstream supports both Python 2 and 3). As a result of that /usr/bin/python (as well as /usr/bin/env python and similar) MUST NOT be used in shebang lines or as a dependency of a package. As of Fedora 30, all uses of unversioned python executables in shebang lines will fail the build. These shebangs MUST be fixed. If it is necessary to disable the checks, please see the information in Packaging:Guidelines#Shebang_lines. > With the logic the 'provides' python and python-twisted are virtual provides > in the python2 and python2-twisted packages that will be moved into python3 > and python3-twisted at some point. So I doubt that python and python-twisted > will go away, they will just move to another package, and should be usable > by python version independent programs (which is what we have). > I am the maintainer of python-twisted, there won't be any provides for python-twisted in F29 and F30, the large list of provides was due to a rename years ago. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
